‘Real life’ vs. ‘Online’ – Understanding how to safeguard your learners from the world of social media
23 Nov 2018
About the event
Social media has a huge impact on young people. In a world where clicks are currency and ‘likes’ are what validates us; it can be tricky differentiating between ‘real life’ and ‘online life’; especially for digital natives. Those born and raised with the smartphone as their fifth limb don’t need to be taught to run from it; but ways to use it for good. This workshop is suitable for anyone who currently works within an FE college/Training provider/Adult Education service who is responsible for student curriculum and/or welfare.
