What will happen in your session?

Learners will share their thoughts and ideas, explore motivations and consequences, and practice their responses as they improve their ability to make informed decisions about online safety and peer relationships.

::Example:::

Activities are centered around answering questions, there are a variety of approaches that will be adopted. Blind votes work well for yes/no questions. Having participants write their answers and hold them above their heads will help ensure that everyone participates in a more comfortable way on sensitive topics.

The aim is to demonstrate how many skills come together to create a great discussion and to realise how all skills are valuable. i.e. a participants may choose to take the conversation beyond the classroom.

Skills: Collaboration, Communication, Crafting etc...

What is the goal or outcome of your session?

The goal of the session is to settle the group and ensure everyone understand the rules, we will get a class to think about the topic for further collaboration. To help young people understand how close and intimate the Internet can be we need to help them engage in the subject matter.

To understand further the term sexting, this session aims to explore the reasons people want to engage in sexting - this will help the class to understand how quick information and images can move.

The topic is sensitive and we are looking for everyone to approach it with maturity and leadership skills. Be respectful of others opinions and ideas. Everyone chooses to express themselves in different ways.

If your session requires additional materials or electronic equipment, please outline your needs.

Throughout the session every individual will bring their devices but white boards and stickers including markers will be provided for collaboration.
