Research

As part of their training, Teenangels are required to carry out two independent research projects. Each year the Teenangels remain in the program, they are required to continue their research and make presentations of their findings. At the annual WiredKids Summit, the Teenangels also present their research to representatives of technology companies, the media, government agencies and law enforcement. They provide the teen perspective on what teens are doing online and how to keep them safer. Here are some samples of the types of research projects the Teenangels carry out:

• Online Gaming/Game Chart
• Online Gaming/Gaming as a Family
• Online Gaming/Gaming Devices: Girls vs. Boys
• Online Gaming/Handhelds
• Online Gaming/Xbox 360 Gamers
• Online Gaming/Tweens and Virtual Worlds
• Social Networking/Social Networking and Teens
