What was something that surprised you about your class throughout the teaching and learning of this kit? How open and honest they would be when given the opportunity to be so.
The kind of kit that makes teaching challenging subjects so much easier. Thank you so much for helping us face down these tricky subjects together.

In what way did your perception of the issues relevant to your class change? I did not expect the high amount of students who have already been exposed to things that made them uncomfortable. I also did not realize how normalized online hate rants were at this age (12/13)

Please describe your comfort level in delivering the more mature content within this kit I felt torn at one stage as I know some students needed more teaching around issues of consent and using the internet to learn about sex and yet there were others that were still quite protected (I teach in a Christian School). The kit has opened up discu

What was something that surprised you about your class throughout the teaching and learning of this kit? The openness to discuss issues relevant to them. How children don't actually know how to seek help.
I love the way children can safely explore the issues around cyber safety and appropriate behaviour. Was not threatening or 'dark' and I found it easy to teach.

In what way did your perception of the issues relevant to your class change? I thought a lot of the issues would be around bullying and the way other people spoke to them, but it turned out to be a lot more self focussed. They we worried about staying connected and ";popularity,"; especially those who weren't allowed online as muc

Please describe your comfort level in delivering the more mature content within this kit I did this with a Year 7 class so I left out some of the more mature content. I did discuss a few of the things that came up with my tutor group however and was pretty comfortable in discussing that with them, possibly because tutor group has more of a we

What was something that surprised you about your class throughout the teaching and learning of this kit? I was surprised by how many of my Year 7's were already using social media despite not being old enough to be allowed to. We had a couple of discussions about why there were age limits to some online interactions and they pointed out that most of that was
I loved the fact this was screen free and didn't rely on a class set of devices to use. Good real world activities and thought provoking stimuli.

In what way did your perception of the issues relevant to your class change? I was surprised at the number of children who have no limits on the wifi at home and who take devices into their rooms. This was after several meetings with parents about digital safety.

What was something that surprised you about your class throughout the teaching and learning of this kit? How many students knew about everything but ran with the thought that nothing would happen to them. Also the number of students who had dealt with cyber bullying or been part of it.
We are a digital school and students thought they knew everything so this kit really woke them up. All tasks were really relevant and the child-focussed and relevant. My class is year 6 to 8 and we had some really fantastic discussions. I plan to re-use this kit next year. Thanks to those who put this together you were spot on!!!

What was something that surprised you about your class throughout the teaching and learning of this kit? the unpacking and scaffolding required to make the connection between the tasks and activities.
I found the kit really hard to understand in regards to the instructions/lesson plan and getting my head around what I needed to do. I definitely think the kit is pitched to an older year group than the Year 7's I have.

In what way did your perception of the issues relevant to your class change? I hadn't realised how many students parents weren't aware of what they were up to online and how it was so easy for strangers to communicate through games.

What was something that surprised you about your class throughout the teaching and learning of this kit? That they didn't seem to grasp the concept initially about how written words to strangers can be devastating.
A fantastic kit, kids learned a lot and it developed student agency.

Please describe your comfort level in delivering the more mature content within this kit I did choose to leave a couple of the cards out as I felt my class weren't quite ready for them. I will address them next year when they are Year 8's as I think they will have the maturity to talk about them then.

This is the first time I have used the School Kit resource and I loved it! It linked in really well to our Term 4 inquiry. Thank you so much for the opportunity - I hope you continue to offer these amazing kits in the future!

In what way did your perception of the issues relevant to your class change? I became more aware of the students who aren't allowed to be online very much as you could see them become awkward because they couldn't always join in with the conversations.

What was something that surprised you about your class throughout the teaching and learning of this kit? How much access all my students have at home and how little parents are monitoring what their students are doing on devices. How many young students are on social media and how they are using this to communicate with each other out of school hours.
Some of the resources didn't hit the spot with my class especially in relation to offline learning. We had already done the keeping ourselves safe health module so it was a little like we were rehashing the same thing. The online/offline boundaries sheet was difficult to use - would have been great to have an example to give me some ideas.
