+Activity 7.1 - Our internet, by pictures and numbers (10 minutes)
Students should present the ideas expressed in the artwork and findings of the survey to the whole class. All key findings and messages should be noted by the students for use in the second half of the class. All artwork should then be stuck up in the classroom so that students can access and review the messages at later dates.
 
+Activity 7.2 - Examining the policies (20 minutes)
  • STEP 1: Students should be split into groups, and each group should be given a copy of Worksheet 7.1 Rewriting the rules – Checklist and a copy of either the bullying policy, the AUP or the internet safety guidelines to read and analyse. If the policies are particularly long each group might be given just a section of the policy to analyse.
  • STEP 2: Students should discuss the policies in their groups and should amend them where they feel necessary. Worksheet 7.1 should help highlight areas that might need to be revised. Students should try to refer to the details provided in the artwork and survey when suggesting changes.
  • STEP 3: After working together, each group should provide feedback to the whole class with its recommendations for changes to policies. Summary of feedback should be taken on the board.
  • STEP 4: At the end of the activity students should agree on the policy changes they feel should be suggested to school management and students’ council.
