Abstract The purpose of this study was to determine the nature and direction of the correlation between the perceived self-efficacy of school principals and the availability and quality of the programming for gifted students in their schools. The study asked 325 public and private elementary school principals in the Hampton Roads area of southeastern Virginia to respond to two surveys, one previously normed concerning self-efficacy, and one developed by the researcher based on gifted program criteria established by the National Association for Gifted Children, to measure program availability and quality. Though no statistically significant relationship between selfefficacy and program availability and/or quality was found overall, such a relationship was found specifically for principals of schools whose focus was general education, and for those whos served in private, non-faith/church-affiliate schools. It was found that schools serving 300 or more students were more likely to provide gifted programming than schools serving fewer students, and that their gifted programs were more likely to be of higher quality than that of smaller schools. Additionally, it was determined that public schools were more likely to provide gifted programming than private schools, and that, in the cases of private schools, principal self-efficacy was positively related to the schools gifted program quality.

Chapter 1 The Problem and Its Background

Introduction In a world of advance technology, where almost all of us have computers or high-technology gadgets, we can say that people are familiar with some social networking sites. Each year is becoming innovative year for technology, producing new products, more advanced daily life. The most used device nowadays are computers, mobile phones, laptop, tablets and pocket PCs. Computer

communication with the use of internet was never this easy, unlike before some of us used letters which takes days to send and to receive, and also telegraphs that cost a lot of money. Social networking is useful whether its for personal or business use. Some business companies use it to communicate with customers or to scout out potential customers. They can attract more customers because more people are into social networking.

There are many Social Networking sites that people was often used. Many people use MySpace, FriendWise, FriendFinder, Yahoo, Facebook, Orkut, and Classmates. Facebook is one of the popular sites that many people in the world used. Facebook is one of the best networking sites in this present generation. Facebook is the one of the popular social networking site that people always used. Facebook was founded by Mark Zuckerberg with his college roommates and fellow

students Eduardo Saverin, Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes. The Web site's membership was initially limited by the founders to Harvard students, but was expanded to other colleges in the Boston area, the Ivy League, and Stanford University. It gradually added support for students at various other universities before opening to high school students, and eventually to anyone aged 13 and over. Friendster is the first networking sites that most people used before facebook becomes popular. Friendster is like a facebook it helps us to chat or communicate with other People. A social Networking site helps all people to communicate with their relatives in other countries.

Social Networking is a theoretical construct useful in the social sciences to study social relationships. Some of the ideas of social network theory are found in writings going back to the ancient Greeks. In the late 1800s, both mile Durkheim and Ferdinand Tnnies foreshadow the idea of social networks in their theories and research of social groups. Tnnies argued that social groups can exist as personal and direct social ties that either link individuals who share values and belief (Gemeinschaft, German, commonly translated as "community") or impersonal, formal, and instrumental social links (Gesellschaft, German, commonly translated as "society"). Social networking is used by all people in any part of the country.

Social networking is the grouping of individuals into specific groups, like small rural communities or a neighborhood subdivision. Although social networking is possible in person, especially in the workplace, universities, and high schools, it is

most popular online. This is because unlike most high schools, colleges, or workplaces, the internet is filled with millions of individuals who are looking to meet other people, to gather and share first-hand information and experiences about cooking, golfing, gardening, developing friendship or professional alliances, finding employment, business-to-business marketing and even groups sharing information about the end of the Mayan calendar and the Great Shift to arrive December 21, 2012. The topics and interests are as varied and rich as the story of our universe.

When it comes to online social networking, websites are commonly used. These websites are known as social sites. Social networking websites function like an online community of internet users. Depending on the website in question, many of these online community members share common interests in hobbies, religion, or politics. Once you are granted access to a social networking website you can begin to socialize. This socialization may include reading the profile pages of other members and possibly even contacting them. The friends that you can make are just one of the many benefits to social networking online. Another one of those benefits includes diversity because the internet gives individuals from all around the world access to social networking sites. This means that although you are in the United States, you could develop an online friendship with someone in Denmark or India. Not only will people make new friends, but they just might learn a thing or two about new cultures or new languages and learning is always a good thing. As mentioned, social networking often involves grouping specific individuals or organizations together.

While there are a number of social networking websites that focus on particular interests, there are others that do not. The websites without a main focus are often referred to as "traditional" social networking websites and usually have open memberships. This means that anyone can become a member, no matter what their hobbies, beliefs, or views are. However, once you are inside this online community, you can begin to create your own network of friends and eliminate members that do not share common interests or goals. As I'm sure people are aware, there are dangers associated with social networking including data theft and viruses, which are on the rise.

The most prevalent danger though often involves online predators or individuals who claim to be someone that they are not. Although danger does exist with networking online, it also exists in the real world, too. Just like you're advised when meeting strangers at clubs and bars, school, or work they are also advised to proceed with caution online. By being aware of their cyber-surroundings and who we are talking to, they should be able to safely enjoy social networking online. It will take many phone conversations to get to know someone, but they are really won't be able to make a clear judgment until they can meet each other in person. Just use common sense and listen to their inner voice; it will tell them when something doesn't feel right about the online conversations taking place. Once people are well informed and comfortable with their findings, they can begin their search from hundreds of networking communities to join. This can easily be done by performing

a standard internet search. When facebook became popular Cybercrimes and Scamming became rampant.

Many people became afraid of using facebook because cybercrimes spreads quickly. Facebook staffs became aware of cybercrimes issues so they make way to solve it so they made their security in high standards to prevent the number of cyber crimes and scamming cases. The cybercrime is one of the serious crimes in facebook, because many people are deceived by the criminals on facebook. A social networking site makes large contribution to people everyday living. Social networking is one of the examples of the growth of our technologies.

Many people become addicted in surfing and chatting to other stranger in some networking sites. When people become addicted in surfing or chatting on some networking sites they are not aware of whats happening around them, to the point that theyre duties and responsibilities are taken for granted causing job loss and even family and friends. When some people become too much addicted in surfing and chatting to some networking sites their body and brain becomes stressed and it can cause them headaches and sickness. \ One thing that many of us do not realize until its too late is the risk associated with our identities. Identity theft can happen to anyone who exposes too much personal information online on various social networking sites. It is not the good idea to give away any personal information which a person can use to steal

your identity, such as a birth date or address. If you wouldnt give this information to a complete stranger on the street, do not post it online.

The researchers aim to advice some of the people to become aware of what happening in their surroundings. Researchers must make a step to help people that are being scammed on some networking sites and they must make some security alerts or security programs that can prevent un-trusted sites that can affect people everyday living. People must become wise and to have greater observation before they trust some sites. The people must become well informed of whats the effect of trusting some sites that are un-trusted.

Significance of the Study This section will provide the brief description of what is the value of social networking in our everyday living. This will guide the readers to come-up with the growing communication in the next generations. To all students, the proposed study serves the students as their reference guide in socializing and communicating to other person. It can also help them to become more socialize and to have more discipline when communicating people. To all teachers, the proposed study will help the teachers to know more about the values and the changes of communication in this present generation. It will also serve as their guide to be more disciplined and to gain more social skills. To the future researcher, the proposed study will benefits and help the future researcher as their guide to make a great research about the branches and the values of social networks in our life.

Conceptual Framework We makes a survey on how people can relate in social networking and on how social networking affects their everyday living. We conduct some questions and suggestion box of how they use social networking as part of their life. The researcher make some question surveying of what is their favorite social networking sites, what they actually do when they log-in to that sites, is social networking helps them to gain more information, is social networking helps them to become well socialize and to become more disciplined. We must need to make survey to know how social networking is important or how it can easily understand. Here are the examples of survey papers that we are plan to do:
