Privacy Pirates: Teacher Material

Start by having students watch the video in the student chapter Wacky Media Songs: Privacy Please! or show it in fullscreen.

Before the video, ask: Do you ever play games or do anything else online where there are people you don’t know in real life?

If so, do you know what to do if someone you don’t know sends you a message?

After the video, ask: Why is it a bad idea to let people online know things like your home address or phone number?

You want to be able to choose how they can contact you.

Why is it important to keep passwords private?

Your password is your key to any online account. If someone else had it, they could pretend to be you and even lock you out of your own account!

What would you do if somebody you didn’t know messaged you online?
