Aurelia Cassar docente di lettere Roma
Vivi Internet, al meglio è stato un grande risultato e soprattutto ha coinvolto ragazzi e ragazze in un’età molto delicata e particolarmente esposta ai pericoli della rete e dei social. Ad esempio, una mia alunna l’anno scorso è stata vittima di una situazione pericolosa, diventando oggetto di attenzioni on line da parte di uno stalker in età adulta. Ne siamo usciti anche grazie alla polizia postale e, coscienti di questo caso, siamo stati ben contenti di intraprendere un percorso che tuteli i giovani da questi pericoli fornendo strumenti da utilizzare in via preventiva.

Vivi Internet, al meglio aiuta a creare contesti facilitanti anche per far emergere casi di cyberbullismo all’interno della scuola, che poi possono essere affrontati in modalità condivisa come comunità educante.
Vanna De Candia Genitore Roma
Il percorso Vivi Internet, al meglio mi ha dato strumenti per aiutare i miei figli, adolescenti e preadolescenti, a sfruttare la tecnologia senza farsene fagocitare e non mettendosi in pericolo. E per consentire l’accesso dei figli ai social bisogna avere degli strumenti di conoscenza.
