This article discusses points to consider when having cameras on, to record or not to record, talks about devices, what to teach and points to other recommended sources for help.

On Safer Internet Day 2021, we organized an online webinar for parents about the online wellbeing of youngsters in times of corona. We created a hand-out with all the important take-outs from the evening.

Informative material for parents to provide information on what is sexting, why young people do it and what the risks may be and how to discuss the topic with their child.

An educational material for students, teachers as well as for parents. The web resource provides information about various lies, propaganda and manipulation in order to better recognize them. The material consists of explanatory texts, references to useful material and self-tests. The material is intended for use in teaching as well as for independent study.
The works submitted to the student competition “Hunt for Lies” have been used in compiling and illustrating the test.

The use of social media has increased sharply in recent years, but such use comes with some risks. The Cyber-Social Citizen MOOC describes the main social media to highlight best practice in their use to improve cybersecurity and help ensure user privacy. The online MOOC was designed based on up-to-date literature, social needs identified in the field, and data from recent research. The course is free of charge and is aimed at citizens over 14 years old.

The game contains 57 symbols that represent terms from the field of information technology and cyber security. The meaning of all terms is briefly explained in the attached glossary. For example, children will learn what digital footprint, hoax, cyber grooming is, but also why they should regularly update software or use an antivirus program. Next, they will get acquainted with Safer Internet Day. It is also good to know that children can always turn to our Safety Line project partner with confidence.
