Teacher facilitated lessons:

These lessons are designed in line with the Australian Curriculum, to generate targeted discussion within the classroom environment about safer social media use and responsible digital citizenship.  There is no requirement for teachers to have prior understanding of social media, as all information required to conduct successful lessons is provided.  Teachers are provided with:

• Access to discussion generating videos for each lesson;
• Resource list
• Succinct activities, providing options for students who are not yet using social media sites

Take-home Lessons for Students:

Eyes Open Social Media Safety online lessons provide extended education for students about the specific features on social media sites that can put a child at risk.  Each subject in the course is focused on a specific feature of the social media sites and teaches:
