What the session covers:
- Key principles of effective prevention education for children and young people
- Developmental milestones within a digital context
- Research on the online activities children and young people enjoy
- The Social Web Framework and how this can be used to help professionals identify potential risks of apps, sites and games
- Further information and resources to help protect children
- Practical strategies to support children to get the most out of being online, whilst helping to protect them.
Why is this important: Front line professionals should have a good understanding of what online activities most children and young people enjoy at different ages and stages, typical developmental milestones and how this may impact the potential opportunities and risks of these activities and ensure that these principles are embedded into their delivery of prevention education.
