The eSmart Digital Licence is an engaging and interactive online learning program designed for children and young adults. The Digital Licence uses quizzes, puzzles, resources and activities to teach school-aged children how to play, learn and socialise online in a smart, safe and responsible way.
Children take a fun yet educational challenge covering up to eight topics to test their digital literacy. Working at their own pace they can always redo the challenge as many times as they like until they complete it.
On successful completion of all topics with a minimum passing rate of 80%, students are awarded an eSmart Digital Licence and can print out a certificate.
Teachers and parents get access to the quiz, current digital articles, understanding concept guides and additional engagement activities to keep up to date and connect with the child/student in the digital environment.
You can track how your students are going on your dashboard under the Progress by Class tab.
You can monitor individual child progress from the Progress by Student and Progress by Class tabs.
The eSmart Digital Licence has been developed by the Alannah & Madeline Foundation, with input from child psychologists, cyber bullying experts, technologists and educators.
The Digital Licence has three age options. A Junior Primary version aimed at children up to year 2, Primary for children from 9 to 12 years, and a Secondary version for children 13 to 14 years. All versions are accompanied by audio to facilitate ‘learn to read’.
The eSmart Digital Licence is designed to complement the Alannah & Madeline Foundation’s eSmart program. It will help eSmart Schools adopting the eSmart framework with Domain 5, Curriculum, and Domain 6, Working with Parents and the Community.
