Cybersecurity for Children and Young Adults: Discussion (Resumed)

9:30 am

Ms Muireann Whelan:

It is like an essay for geography, for example, which consists of many of them. Through social media, one can have a group chat or one's maths teacher can put up a video of him or her doing a maths equation on YouTube in a special group such that only one's class can see and students can comment or ask for it to be redone. That is an example of how technology in schools can move in a positive direction.
