“Digital Brilliant” (in Danish: Digital Genial) is an online toolbox that consists of exercises targeted parent-teacher meetings in 1st -6th grade.

The resource encourages a dialogue where experiences and knowledge are being shared, which can support the collaboration on digital topics between the parents and between the parents and the teachers.
Chat with me?
‘Chat with me’ is a teaching material targeted 1st and 2nd graders about what happens when the communication between people is not face-to-face? Many children at the age of 7-9 years old have a smartphone or know how to use a tablet, and many again are not fully aware of what happens when they communicate with other people and they cannot experience facial expressions or hear the tone of voice in the text message or on the chat in an online game.
Are you OK online?
How far would I go to get 'likes'? How can I learn to stop and think rather than respond to a hurtful comment immediately? And what can I do to take a break from my computer?
It is important to create dialogue with children about issues such as these. And it is especially important to do that with children who have cognitive challenges such as ADHD and autism. They are struggling with impulse management and impact calculation, which can be a challenge for their social life online.
Parents as digital role models

The videos were produced as a part of the Danish Safer Internet Day campaign 2017.
Watch the videos in Danish with English subtitles in the video gallery.
