Sydney - Cybersafety
Date: 22nd February 2012 11:12pm - 16th March 2012 11:12pm
Location: Sydney
Leading experts and educators on cybersafety and the digital culture of young people!
The field of cybersafety is historically and culturally unprecedented. The power of the cyber technology that the average young person can now access in many circumstances vastly exceeds their cognitive and emotional maturity. As result, cyber culture brings both tremendous opportunity and risk to the fingertips of each and every one of our young people. In order to assist them to make the right choices online, carers must become aware, knowledgeable and up to date so that they can confidently work with young people in the culture of cyberspace.
The fact that the online world is changing so rapidly means that information and behaviours are changing rapidly making regular updates and additions to our working knowledge essential.
