Using this resource

By the end of the learning students will be able to:

• describe what it means to be safe online
• identify personal online safety boundaries
• recognise strategies to support others
• recall protective behaviours, reporting skills and help-seeking strategies.

Students will participate in a live video lesson with an eSafety expert who will talk through a slide deck. Students can complete the worksheet during the presentation and explore optional follow-up activities listed in the lesson plan.

This resource is a starting point to discuss online safety. You may need to explain some concepts or extend the themes to suit the level of your students.

Please note: We request that teachers only register their classes for these webinars. Individual student registration will not be accepted as connections to the online platform are limited. Schools can register for any open session hosted by eSafety or a session hosted by your school jurisdiction.
