Better Internet for Kids

In cooperation with the Federal Ministry for Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth, Nummer gegen Kummer e.V. has developed a "school box" / box for schools that teachers/schools can order free of charge on our website. The box contains various materials, such as information materials (flyer, poster, infocards) as well as giveaways (sticker). Additionally, a teaching conception can be downloaded on the helpline’s website. Teachers can use it in class to discuss how to deal with worries and problems.

Each team has a deck of 14 cards. From these, the children draw cards, looking at what concept is on them, so that the mentor does not know what they have drawn. The aim is for the children to collectively tell their mentor what they have drawn and the mentor has to guess the concept. These could be words, concepts, platform names, word associations, anything related to safe internet use.

We prepared a cybersecurity quiz for the kids. We made it interactive through Kahoot. We recommend it because the children can see the questions on the projector and answer them on their own devices. After every single question the children and the quizmaster discuss the right answer. The children are explained why they should chose that actual answer and what it actually means.

31% of 11-18 year olds have been exposed to racist content on their networks and 25% to hate speech related to religion. Incitement to hatred, violence or racial discrimination is an offence punishable by law.

InfoHunter - Online Hate Speech is a middle/high school interactive resource on online hate speech, to learn how to recognise and decipher online racial hate speech. Based on an explanatory video, this course helps teenagers acquire the right reflexes to recognise online hate speech and decipher the mechanisms on which it is based.
