Description


Interland is an adventure-packed online game that makes learning about digital safety and citizenship interactive and fun—just like the Internet itself. Here, kids will help their fellow Internauts combat badly behaved hackers, phishers, oversharers, and bullies by practicing the skills they need to be good digital citizens. 

Interland teaches kids the fundamentals of digital citizenship and safety so they can explore the online world with confidence. Teaches them how to share contents with care, how to secure personal datas and secrets, to be kind. 

The game comes with a comprehensive methodological handbook for teachers and provides the theoretical information, lesson plans, ready-to-use practical tasks and integration of the online game INTERLAND to the lessons. Methodological guidelines are developed in detail for all of the 5 topics covered by the game (conscious sharing, phishing, critical thinking, privacy). This is a huge help to the teachers to implement attractive and interactive online safety lessons. Beautifully-designed, this game promotes engagement and dialogue between teachers, parents and their children.
