The first episode of this podcast focuses on the recurrent phenomenon of cyber violence against women. Its main objective is to bring visibility to the problem of "cyber flashing", a form of digital violence comparable to indecent exposure, which consists of the unsolicited sending of sexually explicit images. The podcast aims to raise public awareness of this issue, providing useful information on how to protect oneself and react in case of cyber flashing. Being entirely in English, the podcast offers a full immersion in the language at a C1 level, allowing for the enhancement of listening comprehension skills and lexical expansion. The resources used to deal with the development of the contents of the ten episodes of "Digital Echoes" were:
