“If we want resilient kids we need to
understand what young people’s
experiences are online, listen to their
concerns, and intervene with their best
interests in mind.”
Jane Tallim, Co-Executive Director,
MediaSmarts, Canada, January 2015 http://mediasmarts.ca/research-policy/young-canadians-wired-

UNDERSTAND!
“We’re doing this because all the research tells us that children and young people respond best to their peers. Whether they’re under pressure to take part in a dangerous prank, or to victimise someone, or whether they’re an online bully themselves, stories told by other young people are most likely to resonate and to help them cope, or change their behaviour.”Andrew Tomlinson, Executive Producer, Media Literacy, BBC Learning

BBC: BE SMART
H.A.L.T.
If you are Hungry, Angry, Lonely or Tired, step away from the keyboard/keypad and deal with that issue first.http://redcatco.com/communication/stop-posting-social-media/
No surprise, then, that
Facebook is no longer a
place for uninhibited
status updates about
pub antics, but an
obligatory
communication tool that
younger people maintain
because everyone else
does.
All the fun stuff is
happening elsewhere.
On their mobiles.
