Welcome to the world of social media! It is a powerful tool, when used correctly, and it's something that students should know how to safely navigate. This class is designed to be welcoming and non-intimidating so that all students feel comfortable asking questions! This is a shorten version of a four week in depth class. It is designed for students with busy schedules and highlights the most important aspects of staying safe. Since this is a shortened class, I will assign homework for students. They will create paper versions of safe online posts. Parents will need to discuss these with students after they've been completed. Here is a breakdown of what you can expect: Students will learn the rules of social media, the steps they need to take to ensure their safety as well as prevent personal information from being used without their permission. They will use these rules to look at social media posts as well as direct messages and comments to decide if they are safe. They will also learn what cyber bullying is and the best way to handle cyber bullying situations. *Students will be looking at pictures of posts, they will not be on any social media sites and will not need logins. *If you'd like to enroll in the longer class, please use this link. https://outschool.com/classes/social-media-safety-messaging-privacy-texting-and-cyber-bullying-awareness-SLxJhLkH?usid=TCf75jk7&signup=true&utm_campaign=share_activity_link

Parental Guidance
Parents, please be aware that although this class provides safety information for your students, you should continue to monitor their social media as they apply these skills to their life.
Throughout the class I will reassure students that their parents or guardians are their allies and that when in doubt, talk it out! This should open up lines of communication!
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Hello families! I’m Amanda and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to teach your learner! I love everything about education and feel consider being a teacher as part of who I am. It is my passion!
I have a bachelor's degree in elementary and special education, two active teaching licenses in Arizona and reading and ESL endorsements. I've been teaching since 2017 and I'm working towards a master's in child and adolescent development.
My goal as your learner’s teacher is to inspire them to be lifelong learners. Learning is scary and requires a lot of vulnerability to take chances knowing you could make a mistake. I pride myself on helping students feel safe, confident, and secure in themselves. I’ve always seen tremendous growth in students when they are in an environment that allows for them to safely make mistakes and learn from them.
I’m looking forward to meeting your learner and joining them in their educational journey!Reviews
