Abstract

This paper looks at the web as a value-promoter for youngsters - a means to instill “positive” principles, feelings, and attitudes in young people, at individual and social level. We discuss through a number of examples how this view can be achieved today with the current web technology. We also propose that the development of methodologies that support the design of value-centered web experiences for youngsters, and of technologies that are appropriate for communicating and detecting value-related aspects, can be a major direction of work for the architects of the future web.
