flat =What can people find out about you online?=
 * (20 minutes)**

What can people find out about you online? You may remember searching out information on yourselves and others using a Pipl search. This information was interesting but probably limited. Now take a look at what information could be found in 6 clicks by people you accept as friends on Facebook or if the security and privacy settings on your account are not strict enough. (If the video doesn't show click on the title.)


 * Watch 6 Degrees of Information**

Discuss in pairs: What can happen with the information you post online? Once it's posted do you remain in control over it? What else can happen to the information you post online? If someone did 6 clicks on your name...what would they find out?

**Try Running the Privacy Checkup on FB!**

Question
If you had to give a percentage for the amount of time you spend online each day on social networks what would it be? Can you relate to the people in this video?



Our Challenge to You!
Discuss the following issues...

How would you feel with no access to social networks?

Could you live without them?

How would your life change?

Could you give up social networking ?

The challenge is to find out who can actually give up social networking for the longest.

We challenge you to not only think about this but to try it out. Choose a time period in which you will challenge yourself to go without social networks. Remember, only you can make it happen, only you can monitor your social network habits.

Give out paper and ask students to complete

Create a display in your classroom and attach all student challenges to them. This can be updated as students reach or fail to reach their challenge. You can decide how this will be recorded.
