The presentation
Respectful Relationships & Communication
Laying a foundation of the importance of being respectful to one another both in person and online. How to be friendly, make friends and keep the peace where possible is a corner stone to life and positive digital citizenship. This section also covers the importance of communication — what we say, how we say it, and what is lost in online and text-only conversations.
Digital Footprint
Understanding the impact of your digital footprint, along with how to create and keep a positive online reputation in order to avoid any hindrances with future relationships, study and career opportunities.
Keeping Personal Information Private
Practical steps on how to identify and avoid catfishing, identity theft and online stranger danger, such as effective password creation, location setting disablement and how to report identified activity.
Hacking
From emails, texting, online scams and scam phone calls — over 90% of Australian students have received a text or phone call scam, yet few know how to properly deal with the situation.
Sexting
(High school age only) This section covers the laws relating to sending inappropriate images, how to report improper behaviour and the top apps students think are safe.
Bullying & Cyber Bullying
How to handle confrontation in the form of cyberbullying — including how to de-escalate an encounter, what you should and should not say, how to be a good bystander and how to report an incident.
Screen & Gaming Addiction
Identifying how and why screens and gaming are so addictive and how to balance screen time and video games with positive alternatives.
Learning Outcomes
