Hello, my name is Ms. Willow, and I'm going to be guiding you through today's learning.

Today's lesson is called Deciding What to Share Online, and it fits into our unit called Our Online Lives: What Should I Share Online? During this lesson, we're going to be talking about peer pressure and about private body parts.

So for this lesson, it's really important that you have an adult with you at all times.

If, at any point, you do become upset or uncomfortable, you should close the screen and go and speak to a trusted adult.

Okay, let's make a start on today's learning.

By the end of today's lesson, you will be able to explain the risks of sharing online and know how to identify if someone is trying to manipulate you into sharing online.

Before we get started with today's lesson, we need to go over some ground rules.

These help to make sure that everyone stays safe and comfortable throughout today's lesson.

Laura says that we need to "Listen to others." That means we're not going to interrupt other people if they're speaking.

Jacob says, "We need to not have any judgement ." That means we're not going to judge however people think, how they feel, or what they've experienced.

Andeep says, "We need to respect each other's privacy." That means we're not going to ask anyone any personal questions as this can make some people feel uncomfortable.

And finally, Izzy says that we can "Choose our level of participation." That means it's up to us how much we want to join in.

We are now going to go through the keywords for today's lesson.

These are gonna pop up multiple times throughout today's lesson, so it's important that we have a good understanding of what each word means.

Share.

In this context, this means to send or post words, sounds, images, or videos online.

Relationship.

This is the connection between people.

Motivation.

This is the reason why someone does something.

Inappropriate.

This means when something is not suitable or right.

And finally, persuade.

This means to try to change someone's mind or their behaviour.

As we go through today's lesson, keep an eye out for these words as they come up and see if you can remember what they mean.

Today's lesson is split into three learning cycles.

The first learning cycle is called Why do people Share things online? The second learning cycle is called Why is it risky to share things online? And our last learning cycle is called How might someone persuade you to share online? Let's make a start on our first learning cycle.

Why do people share things online? There are different ways that people can share online.

They can share their own images, text posts, and videos.

They can share images, text posts, and videos shared by other people.

People who choose to share things online do so for many different reasons.

They might do it for likes, views, and followers, so they might want lots of people to click the like button.

They might share online to keep a record of what they've done or what they've seen, and they might share things online to connect with other people.

For example, some people may share images of themselves online, which get likes, and some people might share photos from their holiday to keep a record of what they've done and what they've seen.

Some people also share online as a way to communicate with others.

Someone might post online to say, "Look at these brownies I made.

Anyone got a good cookie recipe for next time?" Someone could post online saying, "Just finished this book.

I'd love to hear what other people think." Someone could also post online to say, "I want to start running.

Has anyone got any tips?" All of these are examples of how people can share online as a way to communicate with others.

Okay, now let's do a check for understanding to see how you're getting on.

Is this statement true or false? People only share things online because they want likes, views, and followers.

Tell the person next to you, tell me, or have a think to yourself.

Well done if you said false.

But why? People can also share things online because they want to keep a record of what they've seen or done and because they want to connect with other people.

Well done if you said this or something similar.

Being online can allow us to connect with others and have fun.

We can communicate with people we know and make new friends online.

It can also be fun to be online, seeing other people's posts and sharing our thoughts.

For some people, like influencers, it's their job to share content online.

They might be paid to share information about themselves online or their opinions about certain products.

Other people share things online because they want to spread information or they want to spread their opinions.

Some people, like news reporters, are also paid to do this.

They might be paid to post an event that's happened or they might be paid to post their opinion.

We're now going to do another check for understanding.

Which are some positives of sharing online? A, connecting with others, B, sharing unkind opinions about others, or, C, receiving likes from others.

Which of these are positives of sharing online? Pause the video, tell the person next to you, tell me, or have a think to yourself.

Well done if you said A and C.

One positive of sharing online is that you can connect with others and another positive is that you can receive likes from others.

Sharing unkind opinions about others would be a negative of sharing online.

Well done if you said this or something similar.

When we form relationships with others online and offline, this can often involve sharing information about ourselves.

We might share our own thoughts and opinions and we might share personal details like our name if we're meeting someone offline.

Sometimes our relationships with people get stronger when we share things with them.

This can happen in both friendships and romantic relationships.

Lucas could say, "I like animals," and Sam feels the same way, she likes animals too.

Because they shared information with each other, their relationship might get stronger.

Sharing information about ourselves can help others get to know us.

When we choose to share things with others, this can be a sign that we trust them.

This is why it's really important to think carefully about who we share this information with and what information we share at all.

Now let's do another check for understanding.

Is this statement true or false? Sharing information with others can strengthen our relationships with them.

Pause the video, tell the person next to you, tell me, or have a think to yourself.

Well done if you said true.

It is true that sharing information with others can strengthen our relationships with them.

Well done if you got this right.

We're now going to put your learning from this learning cycle into practise.

I'd like you to give three reasons why Henry might decide to share something online.

Henry says, "I'm thinking of sharing my interests online." Can you think of three reasons why he might want to share something online? Pause the video and I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Okay, let's have a look and see what you might have got.

You might have said that Henry might want to connect with other people, he might want likes, views, or followers, and he might want to strengthen his relationships with other people.

Well done if you said this or something similar.

We're now going to move on to our second learning cycle.

You are doing a fantastic job so far, so keep it up.

Our next learning cycle is called Why is it risky to share things online? Sharing things online can be risky.

We need to be careful about what information and posts we share and who we share it with.

In most cases, what we share online cannot be erased.

That means it stays online forever, forming part of our digital footprint.

Our digital footprint is a record of what we have shared online which can be seen by others.

When we share pieces of information online, it's a bit like adding a piece to a puzzle about who we are.

These pieces of information create a much bigger picture which can identify us.

This can be dangerous if we don't know the person offline.

If people that we don't know offline know who we are, this can be dangerous.

The person might not be who they say they are and we don't know their motivations for being online.

Because of this, we can't trust them to keep us safe.

We're now going to do another check for understanding.

Is this statement true or false? It is safe to share personal information online if the other person says they're the same age as us.

What do you think? Well done if you said false, but why? It is not safe to share personal information online because the other person might not be who they say they are.

Even if they say that they're the same age as us, they might not be telling the truth.

What we share online can also allow people to make assumptions, which means guesses, about us and what we believe in, both now and in the future.

Sometimes people share photos, videos, or text posts that are disrespectful.

This might be because they're discriminating against somebody, it might be because they're discriminating against a certain group, or it might be because they're bullying someone.

When we share something online, others assume that it's something that we agree with.

That means we need to be really careful to not share posts that discriminate or are disrespectful to others.

Alex tells us that, "If we share hurtful content, we risk facing serious consequences both now and in the future as well as upsetting other people." What we share online can have real-life consequences.

In some cases, people have lost their jobs or been in trouble with the law as a result of what they've shared online.

They might have shared a disrespectful opinion about someone or a group of people, and as a result, they've lost their job or been in trouble with the law.

This can even happen with posts that have been shared a long time ago.

Now let's do another check for understanding.

What are some of the risks of not sharing carefully online? A, what we share could impact our future job, B, what we share could cause us to get more likes, or, C, what we share could hurt other people's feelings.

Which of these are the risks of not sharing carefully online? Pause the video, tell the person next to you, tell me, or have a think to yourself.

Well done if you said A and C.

One of the risks of not sharing carefully online is that it could impact our future job and it could also hurt other people's feelings.

Well done if you got this correct.

People can share inappropriate photos and videos online, either on social media or directly to other people.

This might include content that is scary and it might include content that is only for adults, this means people over the age of 18.

Sharing inappropriate photos and videos can also have serious consequences.

Even if we think photos and videos will disappear after a certain amount of time, people are still able to screenshot them.

This means to take a picture of their screen so that they're able to keep them even when the picture has disappeared.

This means that they're able to share the image or video with others without our permission or without us knowing.

Private parts must always remain private and they should never be shared online, for example, in photos or videos.

Private parts are the parts of your body that are covered by underwear.

It is illegal to take or store any inappropriate images or videos of someone's private parts if they are under the age of 18.

It's important to always tell a trusted adult if we are worried about sharing things online or if someone asks us to share something with them.

Aisha tells us that, "By talking to trusted adults about what we share online, we can make safe choices and know what to do if we share something that we then feel uncomfortable with." Let's do another check for understanding.

True or false? If an inappropriate image is shared on an app where it will disappear after 10 seconds, it is safe to share it.

What do you think? Pause the video, tell the person next to you, tell me, or have a think to yourself.

Well done if you said false, but why? The person who receives the inappropriate image could take a screenshot and could share it with others.

It could also be illegal to share the image if it is of someone's private parts and they are under the age of 18.

Well done if you got this right.

When sharing online, we should consider other people's privacy.

Everyone has the right to control what is shared about them online, so we should never share images or videos of other people without their consent.

This means without their permission.

For example, Holly might say, "I've taken a great photo of you.

Can I share it online?" Aarnav, in this case has said, "No problem." This means he has given consent for Holly to share the image.

But we should always be careful about sharing content about others online as it can affect how other people feel.

It can make others feel happy and appreciated if we share something positive, with someone's consent, remember, this means with their permission, or it can make others feel upset, worried, or embarrassed if we share anything without their consent, this means without their permission.

Sometimes, what we share has consequences that we can't predict.

We could accidentally upset someone else.

We can make them feel embarrassed.

We could share something about ourselves that later on we find embarrassing.

This is why it's really important to think carefully before we share online.

Everyone finds different things upsetting or embarrassing.

Here, someone has said, "Let me share this photo of you online.

I wouldn't be embarrassed if it was me in the photo." But the person in the photo has said, "I find it embarrassing, so please do not share it." It's important to remember that everyone has different boundaries online.

These boundaries should always be respected.

Boundaries are different things a person is and isn't comfortable with.

Now let's do another check for understanding.

Which pupil is correct? Laura says, "It is never safe to share something about someone without their consent." Andeep says, "It is safe to share something about someone else as long as we wouldn't mind someone posting the same thing about us." Which people do you think is correct? Pause the video, tell the person next to you, tell me, or have a think to yourself.

Well done if you said that Laura is correct.

It is never safe or okay to share something about someone else without their consent, even if we feel like we wouldn't mind if it was posted about us.

Everyone has different boundaries that should always be respected.

We should never post something about someone else without their permission.

Before we share online, we should ask ourselves some questions to make sure that we are sharing carefully.

Jun says, we could ask, "Do we trust the person that we're sharing with?" Izzy says, "Do we know them offline?" So this means do we know them in real life? And Aisha says, "Is it appropriate to share?" It's also important to think about the consequences of sharing online and what the risks are.

Jun says, "How does sharing it make us look?" Izzy says, "Could it hurt someone's feelings?" And Aisha says, "Does it keep me and others safe?" Many people will share things online that they regret at some point in their lives.

This is especially true for young people who are still learning their boundaries online and how to share safely.

Aisha says that, "If we share something that we feel puts us at risk, it's really important to tell a trusted adult straight away." Now, let's do another check for understanding.

Which statement is true? A, we should never share anything online because it's too dangerous, B, we should always think carefully before sharing things online, or, C, we should share everything online because it helps people to connect with us.

What do you think? Pause the video, tell the person next to you, tell me, or have a think to yourself.

Well done if you said that B is correct.

It is correct that we should always think carefully before sharing things online.

It is safe to share some things online, but we shouldn't share everything online because this isn't always a safe choice.

We are now going to put your learning from this learning cycle into practise.

For the first part of the task, I would like you to circle which examples of posts are appropriate to share online? A photo of a pet, a video of a friend getting hurt, a picture of a friend without consent, a photo of someone's private parts, a video of a friend saying unkind things about a classmate, or a selfie with an older family member that they gave consent to share.

For the second part of the task, I would like you to, for each inappropriate example, explain why they would not be safe to share online.

Pause the video and I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Okay, so the appropriate posts that you should have circled are a photo of a pet and a selfie with an older family member that they gave permission to share.

For each inappropriate example, you might have written, posting a video of a friend getting hurt could embarrass them or hurt their feelings.

Posting a picture of a friend pulling a silly face without consent is not safe to share because they did not give permission for it to be shared.

Posting a photo of someone's private parts is inappropriate and it is never safe to share images or videos of someone's private parts online.

This would also be illegal if they're under 18.

Posting a video of a friend saying unkind things about a classmate could hurt their feelings and embarrass both the friend and the classmate being talked about.

Well done if you've got this right.

We're now going to move on to our final learning cycle.

How might someone persuade you to share online? People online may have hidden motivations that are difficult to find out.

Unfortunately, there are some people online who can use manipulation tactics to harm us or get something from us like money or inappropriate content.

To manipulate someone is to influence their emotions to make them do something.

People might use manipulation tactics to persuade someone to trust them or share something.

They might seem to give lots of information about themselves so you feel like you can trust them to share information about yourself.

One example of this could be someone online saying, "Hi, I'm Liam.

I'm 10 years old and I'm from London.

What's your name?" We don't know if this information is real or what this person's motivations are online.

Another manipulation tactic to persuade you online could be to give you lots of compliments and make you feel really good about yourself.

For example, someone online saying, "You are so special to me and you seem much older than your age." This can make you more likely to do what they ask because you feel like they care about you.

People might also do something to help you or give you something that you want so that you feel like you should give something back.

They might say something like, "I showed you how to complete that part of the game, so now I want to see what you look like." This can make you feel like you owe them something, which can mean you would share something that you normally wouldn't.

Additionally, people might try to persuade you online by making you feel guilty if you don't share something.

They might say something like, "If you were really my friend, you would tell me what school you go to." This makes you more likely to share something with them as you feel guilty for not sharing if you don't.

Now let's do a check for understanding.

Which manipulation tactic is this an example of? "Hi, I'm Lily.

I'm eight years old and I'm from Scotland.

What's your name?" A, giving lots of information to persuade you to do the same, B, giving you lots of compliments, or, C, making you feel guilty.

What do you think? Pause the video, tell the person next to you, tell me, or have a think to yourself.

Well done if you said that this was A.

This is an example of someone giving lots of information to persuade you to do the same.

Which manipulation tactic is this an example of? "If you really cared about me, you'd tell me where you live." Is this, A, giving lots of information to persuade you to do the same, B, giving you lots of compliments, or, C, making you feel guilty? Pause the video, tell the person next to you, tell me, or have a think to yourself.

Well done if you said C.

This is an example of someone making you feel guilty so that you're more likely to share something with them.

Well done if you've got these questions right.

If we're online and someone makes us feel uncomfortable, something doesn't feel quite right, or we're asked to share something by someone else, it's really important to talk to a trusted adult.

Report the account if they break the site's rules and you can also block the account to keep you safe.

If we've shared something online with someone that makes us feel worried or just a bit uncertain, we should always speak to a trusted adult who can help us.

They can help us to delete the content, block the account, and take the right steps to stay safe online.

Let's do another check for understanding.

True or false? We should talk to a trusted adult if someone asks us to share something online.

Pause the video, tell the person next to you, tell me, or have a think to yourself.

Well done if you said true.

This is true.

We should always talk to a trusted adult if someone asks us to share something online.

Let's move on to your final practise task.

Explain to Alex three manipulation tactics to look out for online.

Alex says, "What might someone do in order to persuade someone else to do something for them online?" Pause the video and I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Okay, let's have a look and see what you might have got.

You might have said that they could give lots of information about themselves, they could give them lots of compliments, they might do something to help them, or they might make them feel guilty for not sharing online.

Well done if you said this or something similar.

We are now going to summarise the key learning from today's lesson.

Being online can allow us to connect with others, build relationships, and have fun.

There are some risks that come with sharing things online, so we should always share things carefully and always talk to our trusted adult before we share online.

Sharing inappropriate photos and videos can have serious consequences both now and in the future.

It's also difficult to tell people's motivations online.

People can use manipulation tactics to persuade someone to trust them or to share something such as making someone feel guilty or giving them compliments.

In today's lesson, we've talked about some tricky topics.

It's really important that you speak to a trusted adult if you have any worries or concerns.

There are also some organisations on the screen who are there to support you.

Well done for your fantastic, hard work today.

I'm really proud of you and I hope to see you again soon.
