On 21st of June, at Multikino Złote Tarasy, we made educational workshop for children about safety in the Internet, and also showed how to use our educational application Im2be.
Over 100 students took part in the workshop. It surprised us how much children know about the internet, and it was also a bit worrying how much time they spend in the virtual world without any control from the parent.
We also organized a game for children. We divided all gathered into 6 groups, and then each group had to list the threats or benefits that flow from the Internet. Once again, the participants surprised us, because they had a great knowledge of Internet threats, such as viruses, hackers, viral games such as “blue whale”, Internet addiction, dangerous knowledge and content. Children knew much more about threats than about benefits.
At the end of the workshop we picked 2 children who were supposed to answer the randomly asked questions about proper online behavior. The kids dealt with this task perfectly.
At the end, we handed out stickers for children to stick the lenses of the telephone sets and wished them great fun while watching the film.
