In this episode Andy and I discuss teaching resources available to help you deliver lessons about risks and issues young people face online - in particular those made by Project Evolve (which can be accessed at projectevolve.co.uk). We look at common myths professionals might inadvertently be passing on, such as suggesting that gaming causes young people to be violent or that looking at a screen all day will damage your eyesight. We also discuss whether young people are really concerned about pornography. We talk about questions you should be prepared for, and how much you really need to know about this subject to deliver a really great lesson. It's not all about being in the classroom though, we talk about how this is relevant in informal settings (such as youth clubs) as well.

We mention a mapping document linked to the Headstart Online Resilience tool, if you would like to get a copy of this, please email me at [email protected].
