Today we continued with our how to be safe online unit and focussed on online communication. We discussed what different forms of communication we can do online and then we explored the advantages and disadvantages of online communication. We discussed why some people use emojis, memes and gifs to communicate and even had a go at creating some of our own. We watched a clip which showed us the importance of asking permission from someone before posting pictures etc… Next, we looked at some different scenarios and judged whether the comments were negative and positive. We discussed the impact that negative comments have on people’s mental health and turned the negative comments into more positive ones. Finally, we talked about what to do if we came across any negative online communication.
