Tree Octopi?

Our children are spending many precious hours on the internet, both for pleasure and for work.  Don't they need the skills necessary to ascertain fact from friction?  To ascertain objectives and motivations behind what they are viewing?  In other words, don't they need the skills to critically evaluate what they view and hear on the internet?  This video makes it clear our students are not developing those critical literacy skills.  In the US, money is being spent on the hardware, but not on the teacher training needed to support the development of student skills.  I hope we do better in Australia.
