Juniors join Buddy Bear on an adventure, learning how to take care of devices, how search and play games safely, as well as the importance of being friendly and kind.
This covers the importance of digital reputation, privacy, gaming, in-app purchasing, traps, screen-time implications, as well as friends and strangers.
This version focuses more on socialising online and addresses the problematic issues of risky behaviours online, messaging and location-based apps; technology addiction, obsession and compulsion; relationships, reputation and digital footprint.
I honestly can say that one of the most impressive programs my daughter’s primary school participated in was the eSmart Digital Licence.
I am proud and relieved as a parent that it prepared her to be a thoughtful and safe user of technology. I have recognised this, especially in hindsight, upon my daughter finishing primary school and entering high school.
It has enabled her independence to navigate the internet with confidence and the knowledge to make good choices. I am grateful that she had this opportunity.
The web is a great place for kids to learn, be creative and stay connected. The eSmart Digital Licence is an innovative way of bringing critical online safety skills to families and young people.
Online safety education in Australia has reached a new era. The Digital Licence is an interactive resource that challenges young people to examine their interactions online and to think more critically. Referencing current trends and applications, the resource helps students and educators on their path toward informed digital citizenship. The Office of the Children's eSafety Commissioner recommends the eSmart Digital Licence as part of essential e-safety skill and knowledge development.
I know the children have both really enjoyed and also been challenged by the licences which we think is great - it challenged their thinking. It has also been terrific for us to be able to reassure parents that we are actively educating the children in this area using a high quality, well verified and credible resource.
