Youngsters today are in
danger on the Internet because
of not understanding the
relevance of data. They
either too freely provide
their own data and thus run
the risk of identity theft or
of an unwanted third party
being able to target them, or
they too easily believe the
actuality of data provided by
others and thus could become
targeted by a third party who
is disguised by a false
identity.
On the other hand the Internet
a great tool that offers
youngsters many additional
opportunities to their
education, leisure time and
social life. Internet is
nowadays thoroughly embedded
in our lives.
We thus need to come up with
innovative approaches which
will carefully balance theory
and practice and promotes
resilience, thus allowing
youngsters to fully enjoy
online experiences, while
minimizing the impact of
potential risks.
In addition to the existing
training on Internet safety we
need to help youngsters
develop a deeper understanding
of online risks and how they
are related to their online
identities. These identities
concern their consciously or
unconsciously projected
identity as seen in their
profiles or shown in their
communicative interactions,
but also encompass the way
they are externally profiled
and interpreted.
Educational technologists,
psychologists, educators and
ICT experts will present their
views on the subject and
engage in a creative dialogue
with participants.
Especially teachers and
parents are encouraged to
participate in this
interactive conference to
learn about the experiences
accumulated from a 2 year
project (IDentifEYE) which
conducted numerous workshops
in schools around Europe.

and stay tuned for the exact
schedule and list of
speakers.
