The internet plays a major part in the everyday lives of young learners in today’s society, both in and outside the school environment.
You are educated in school about the dangers surrounding the use of the internet and learn about appropriate behaviours and critical thinking skills to help them use the internet safely. However, the digital world is always changing and so it is important to make sure you know how to help keep yourself safe when you are using the internet, social networks, apps, games and more.
Posting pictures and videos? THINK before you share!
You can take photos or shoot a video anywhere and share them online in no time. They can be a great way to show friends what you're up to, but it can be really hard to delete pictures or videos from the internet or other people's mobiles. Once you've shared something online or on your mobile, you've lost control of it!
