Information about the Internet ABC

The Internet ABC imparts important media skills for children, teachers and parents in a way that is child-friendly, target group-specific and always up-to-date.

With the Internet ABC, children learn:

how to safely handle their data and that of others.

how they can distinguish secure information from false reports on the Internet.

how they can independently, critically, creatively and safely explore the global wealth of knowledge on the Internet.

Such “Internet literacy” protects children from cyberbullying, misinformation and the negative effects of online advertising.

 

It is therefore preventive in the best sense of the word. With the learning modules of the Internet ABC, the sub-competencies of the NRW media competence framework can be worked out in the classroom. The Internet ABC is offered in North Rhine-Westphalia by the Landesanstalt für Medien NRW.
