About Online Safety
GoConqr OriginalWhat the resources cover
The page is about staying safe and acting responsibly online. Many of the mind maps look at being a good digital citizen: using social networking sensibly, keeping a profile private, knowing who your friends are and checking your settings regularly. Others deal with personal information, such as not sharing where you live and not replying to people you don't know in real life.
Threats and protection
The mind map Threats when on the Internet sets out computer crimes, including stealing money or data and illegally copying paid files. The malware map covers viruses, worms, trojans, bot armies and keystroke loggers. Strong Protective Password explains why weak passwords are a risk, why you should mix letter cases and symbols, and why you never hand a password to anyone, even a friend. You will also find notes on CAPTCHA and on Verified by visa and SSL, plus maps on Identity Theft and Digital Footprint.
Where to start
- Take the Internet Safety Quiz. It begins with a friend request from a stranger and asks what to do next.
- Read the E-safety mind map, then the E-SAFETY map, which lists what to do if someone is rude or you feel unsafe.
- Move on to Strong Protective Password and the malware map.
- Check yourself with the Forums quiz, which tests terms for false identities and offensive posts.
Using quizzes and maps together
Use a quiz first to find what you don't know. Then open the map on that topic and read it branch by branch. Return to the quiz afterwards and see what has changed. Flashcard decks such as Cyberbullying flashcards and online safety revision are handy for short bursts of recall. Teachers can use the slide sets, including eSafety and eResponsibility, as ready-made starting points for a lesson.
Where it fits
This unit sits in the Security, Safety, Ethics and Society strand of Computing and ICT. Some resources mention GCSE ICT, such as the GCSE ICT Key Info mind map. Pick a resource that suits you, and make your own maps or cards for anything you can't find.
Frequently asked questions
Which resource should I try first?
Start with the Internet Safety Quiz. It asks practical questions, such as what to do when a stranger sends a friend request. After that, read the E-safety mind map to see the rules in one place, then return to the quiz and see what you remember.
What do the mind maps cover?
There are over 1,000 of them. Many cover being a good digital citizen and social networking do's and don'ts. Others explain strong passwords, malware, identity theft, digital footprints, cyberbullying, online shopping and preventing the misuse of personal information.
Are the resources free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users rather than by GoConqr itself, so styles and depth vary. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you create your own resources.
Which levels and exams do they suit?
Most resources are aimed at secondary school students, with a small share for younger pupils. One of the listed resources mentions GCSE ICT. Teachers can also use the slide sets and notes as ready-made material for lessons on e-safety.
Is there anything on viruses and scams?
Yes. The malware mind map covers viruses, worms, trojans, bot armies and keystroke loggers. You can also try Quiz - Viruses, flip through the Virus and email scams flashcard decks, or read the notes titled Online threats.
What if my topic is missing?
Browse the notes, slide sets and flashcard decks, as a topic may sit inside a broader resource such as Computer Safety and Ethics. If you still can't find it, you can build your own mind map, quiz or flashcards on it.
