Digital citizenship, with families in the room
Three paths, a panel for the school, and a channel if something happens. About three minutes, top to bottom.
01
The problem
Chats, social apps, and games already bring grooming (someone trying to win a child’s trust), scams, unauthorized account access, fake news, bullying, deepfakes (fake video or audio made with artificial intelligence), and online gaming. The school can name them and work on them.
- Grooming
- Scams
- Unauthorized access
- Fake news
- Bullying and harassment
- Deepfakes
- Online gaming

Three audiences, three paths
Primary (8–12) and secondary (13–17). Each age gets its own language.

03

Short slides, then a check with feedback right away.
1 / 3
An AI-powered tutor also answers questions about the lesson at any hour.
04
What the school sees
In each class you see who moved forward and who finished. A teacher sees their own class, not the whole school.
05
If something happens
The “Report grooming or bullying” button opens an internal school channel. Grooming goes only to school leadership. Bullying among students also reaches the teacher. Leadership works it with the gabinete psicopedagógico, the school’s counseling team.
This channel does not replace a formal report to the police, a prosecutor, or a child-protection agency.
06
For families
Families learn how to support at home, not how to watch over every click.
- Short conversations, not lectures.
- What to do if a strange message or a scam shows up.
- How to line up with the school, without blame.

Leadership, one class, and families can walk through it before deciding. No commitment.
