Foundation Learning Assignment


The S.P.A.C.E campaign required further differentiation for foundation learning students



Why? • Students were struggling to

communicate concerns around eSafety

• All learning styles needed to be included

Aims: • Develop understanding of social

networking, safe practice, cyber bullying and miss-interpretations of text

Using the Social wall: • Provides an active teaching tool

designed to prompt discussion and tackle issues that arise with a focus on inclusion

We also: • Looked at comments and safe

conduct around YouTube, blogging and other social media formats



Video – We created a short video explaining and demonstrating FaceWall

eSafety awareness in ICT lessons


Further eSafety awareness is addressed and embedded into ICT lessons for LDD
