Launch of New Primary and Secondary Digital Literacy and PHSE Teaching Resource - Critical Thinking and Online Extremism

Childnet have collaborated with the LGFL Online Safety Group and has created a resource which is designed to support teachers in exploring critical thinking online and the emerging area of online extremism and propaganda. The resource is based around the idea of trust and provides young people with online examples for them to discuss and challenge. The resource is intended to be used in PSHE and Digital Literacy lessons to stimulate discussions.

This workshop will take delegates through the teaching pack and resources for Primary and Secondary schools, as well as hearing from Industry experts via a Panel discussion about this important area of online safeguarding of children and young people.

This resource further extends existing training and education resources from the LGFL http://www.lgfl.net/esafety/Pages/counter-extremism.aspx
