Learning Curve Education: Educating Young People about E-Safety

Internet safety is one of the most significant issues facing young people today. A recent survey of 20,000 teenagers found that more than half enjoy unrestricted access to any and every web site. The research, carried out by MSN, also found that 29 percent of the teenagers quizzed admitted to suffering from bullying while using the web.

Learning Curve Education is delighted to announce the launch of Keeping Myself e-Safe, a new resource for schools which helps young people understand how to stay safe when using the internet and other digital technologies. This innovative and engaging resource contains animated films which can be delivered online or from DVD.

These films focus on young people who find themselves in difficult or compromising situations whilst using the internet or other digital technologies, and portray the events which have led to them getting into trouble. Keeping Myself e-Safe is accompanied by a comprehensive support pack which helps teachers to stay up-to-date with current technologies and terminologies, as well as highlighting good practice and advice. The pack also includes information, activities and questions designed to support young people by raising awareness and offering opportunities for group discussion.

Keeping Myself e-Safe is available for two different age groups: one to support primary schools and one to support secondary schools. For more information, visit www.learningcurve.info

These kind of information is very important for all age group not only teen. Because internet browsing should be safe if not the important data from our pc might be stolen or might be deleted for ever. Education ourself on these kind of issues are really important. You have taken up a good point that has to thought over.

I had a dream to make my own organization, but I didn't earn enough amount of cash to do this. Thank goodness my close fellow advised to take the mortgage loans. Therefore I used the auto loan and made real my desire.
