Did your perception of what issues were relevant to your class change? This could be from statements made or the marbles? Yes
In what way did your perception of the issues relevant to your class change? Discovering the different 'boundaries' they had and the lack of parental involvement there when it came to internet us.

Please describe your comfort level in delivering the more mature content within this kit I think this would be so interesting to do. As a school, the decision was made for us to not cover all of them due to teaching a mixed year group class (Years 4-6) but I think that sensitive subjects should be taught across the board. Unfortunately, this

What was something that surprised you about your class throughout the teaching and learning of this kit? My class is a tough crowd so it was surprising how engaged they all were and how much they enjoyed the anonymity of the marbles task.
It was so well-resourced and great that you could cater it accordingly to the age-range. Teaching a mixed aged group (Years 4-6), I would've loved to explore some of the deeper topics with the Year 6s and maybe this is something we could look at if we did it again. To make it better: Have a completed example of the two boundaries sheets to make it clearer for teachers. A few of my teacher friends struggled with this task because they weren't 100% sure so this would help give you an idea. Thank you, guys!

What was something that surprised you about your class throughout the teaching and learning of this kit? They were really focused and engaged (whereas they tend to struggle with long discussions otherwise).
The activities in this kit were fantastic for drawing parallels between the online world and the offline world. This definitely made the appropriate/inappropriate behaviour more explicit and tangible for students to discuss and use.

In what way did your perception of the issues relevant to your class change? The marble was a good activity but because of some immature behaviour from a few students it disrupted their thinking and some of my quieter students shut down. I would like for them to do this activity again without some of the disruptive students.

Please describe your comfort level in delivering the more mature content within this kit I found some of the students were engaging in quite mature stuff online which is a concern. This was shared with the team.

What was something that surprised you about your class throughout the teaching and learning of this kit? Some good discussions were very interesting. I was surprised by the level of content some students bought up.
For the most part the kit was excellent. The information on Facebook was very helpful. However, I have a year 7 &; 8 class and they found for the most part interesting. Although, the year 8s found it a little boring and were quite immature. I found it difficult to keep them engaged and to be considerate of other people's views and opinions. Thankfully, we have circle time to check in and connect in the mornings to support those who were being disruptive. I think implementing this resource would be better suited for earlier in the year.

What was something that surprised you about your class throughout the teaching and learning of this kit? The positive actions taken by many of the students when they have faced situations online.
Good kit, many easy to use resources. It provides lots of scenarios that are easy to unpack and develop, in line with the needs of the audience.

In what way did your perception of the issues relevant to your class change? My perceptions weren’t changed, I had picked up the differences during COVID Lockdown and it was good to reference back to this when parents weren’t always watching what they got up to and children were online a lot more.

Please describe your comfort level in delivering the more mature content within this kit I have delivered digital technologies before so I had a bit of background knowledge however we had a student teacher teaching parts of it and she found it really well laid out and easy to use.

What was something that surprised you about your class throughout the teaching and learning of this kit? It surprised me how passionate they got about ‘the right thing to do.’ They were all wanting to share their opinions and stories eagerly.
This kit was great. It got the children thinking about the difference between their online and offline boundaries, also hearing what boundaries other children have. The scenarios brought about rich discussion and debate for the best outcomes to each, highlighting the different online rules for each child at home. This kit was well worth it for the children, they all had digital ‘stories’ to tell and it brought internet safety right into the forefront.

What was something that surprised you about your class throughout the teaching and learning of this kit? The amount of awareness around digital content but lack of awareness of safety issues.
This kit is high quality, well thought-out and very useful for teaching safe behaviours. It has some interesting, innovative approaches that keep the children engaged.

In what way did your perception of the issues relevant to your class change? I was surprised at the number of children who have no limits on the wifi at home and who take devices into their rooms. This was after several meetings with parents about digital safety.

Please describe your comfort level in delivering the more mature content within this kit I had no difficulty at all - these things are so important. I was surprised though at their willingness to share as openly as they did even when they know their actions had been wrong in previous situations

What was something that surprised you about your class throughout the teaching and learning of this kit? How many students knew about everything but ran with the thought that nothing would happen to them. Also the number of students who had dealt with cyber bullying or been part of it.
We are a digital school and students thought they knew everything so this kit really woke them up. All tasks were really relevant and the child-focussed and relevant. My class is year 6 to 8 and we had some really fantastic discussions. I plan to re-use this kit next year. Thanks to those who put this together you were spot on!!!

In what way did your perception of the issues relevant to your class change? I hadn't realised how many students parents weren't aware of what they were up to online and how it was so easy for strangers to communicate through games.

What was something that surprised you about your class throughout the teaching and learning of this kit? That they didn't seem to grasp the concept initially about how written words to strangers can be devastating.
A fantastic kit, kids learned a lot and it developed student agency.
