Learning objective
- To recognise how information in the media (and online) can affect how people feel about themselves
National curriculum
All schools should make provision for personal, social, health and economic education (PSHE), drawing on good practice.
The PSHE Association Programme of Study recommends pupils are taught:
- H22. Strategies for keeping safe online; the importance of protecting personal information, including passwords, addresses and the distribution of images of themselves and others
- L18. To critically examine what is presented to them in social media and why it is important to do so; understand how information contained in social media can misrepresent or mislead; the importance of being careful what they forward to others
Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: Might need to work as part of a group in a pair to have someone to share ideas with.
Pupils working at greater depth: Should explain why people might want to share this alternative image of themselves through social media.
