INTERNET has become an essential part of how we learn and how we do
things, not just at school but also in our day to day lives. However, like any
other technology it has two sides; the GOOD and the BAD. We at Pathways,
constantly encourage our students to understand and reflect upon both the
sides. Internet Safety is an essential
component of our ICT curriculum at Pathways Noida. In order to extend this
learning outside the classrooms and make it more effective, we have organised an
Internet Safety Week with the central theme “CONNECT WITH CAUTION”. A lot of interesting competitions have been
organised that encourage children to express their views about Internet Safety
through poems, artwork, slogans, posters, comic strips, digital graphics,
animations and video editing. Students have also participated in Internet Games
and Quizzes based on various Internet threats like Identity Theft, Malware,
Cyber bullying, Cyber stalking, leaving
Digital Footprints and also the ways to counter these threats. In addition to
that, we also organised a special assembly to educate the children about this.
We also teach our children that while learning ways and means to keep ourselves
secure on Internet, we should also not indulge in acts that violate similar
rights of others who share this space.
