The series of Internet Segura for Kids - IS4K’s lesson plans about safety and security, provide guidance for teachers. Each lesson plan includes two dynamic and interactive activities based on the promotion of personal responsibility and critical thinking for children and young people when facing online content, each of them lasts 50 minutes.
The activities include specific guidance for teachers on how to plan the activity with pupils, as well as a presentation about the topic. The activities follow a Thinking-Based Learning approach, starting with an initial brainstorming about a specific related situation in which the possible problems are spotted. This will help them to develop the activity by students, who will deal with the problem and try to find solutions in groups. They will have to give their opinion followed by a final presentation of each group’s conclusions.
There are specific lesson plans for different age groups: under 8 years-old, between 9 and 11 years-old; between 12-14 years-old and over 15 years-old.
The purpose is to foster, among people under the age of 18, personal responsibility and critical thinking as essential skills. Hence, they will be helped to contrast online information, think before accepting new contacts and how to react when facing possible problems which may arise.
This resource is also used for workshops within the School Workshops Programme (Programa de Jornadas Escolares in Spanish) for the safe and responsible use of the Internet.
