Welcome Unit 8
📣 Attention students! 📣
Welcome to another exciting week of our course on digital citizenship and internet safety! In our last class, we discussed the importance of being responsible digital citizens and explored ways to protect ourselves online. Today, we have an important topic to cover that directly affects many individuals in the digital world: cyberbullying.
Cyberbullying is a harmful and negative behavior that occurs online, where individuals use technology to harass, intimidate, or humiliate others. It is essential for us to understand this issue and learn how to combat it effectively. To make our learning experience even more engaging and interactive, we will be utilizing a fantastic resource called Interland, specifically the "Kind Kingdom".
Interland's "Kind Kingdom" is designed to teach us the principles of kindness and positive behavior online. By using this material as a guide, students can:
1️⃣ Identify instances of harassment or bullying on the internet.
2️⃣ Evaluate the roles of being an observer or a proactive witness in online situations.
3️⃣ Learn specific strategies to respond to cyberbullying.
4️⃣ Understand appropriate behavior and actions to take when faced with harassment online.
By incorporating Interland's "Kind Kingdom" into our discussions, we will gain valuable insights and skills to navigate the online world with kindness and empathy.
Throughout this week, we encourage you to explore the Interland platform, engage with the "Kind Kingdom" module, and reflect on the positive and negative behaviors we encounter online. Be prepared to participate in class discussions, share your experiences, and brainstorm effective ways to combat cyberbullying.
Remember, creating a safe and respectful online environment starts with each one of us. Let's become digital ambassadors of kindness and stand against cyberbullying together.
Wishing you a week filled with enlightening discussions and meaningful discoveries!
