Prepare your materials

Here are some tips on how to organise the resources and use them for maximum learner engagement.

Printables

Track progress as a class using the wall map

The set of island maps can be pieced together to form one large poster that represents the overall eSmart Digital Licence quest.

How to assemble a class map

Print all worksheets in A4 or A3, black and white. Place all four landscape risk area islands maps on the wall with about a 10cm gap between them, as shown in the image below. Match up the bridges from the central island to the risk area islands and adjust the positioning.

There are two ways you can show learning progress as a class:

  • Option one: Choose one learner’s completed island map to replace a blank one on the wall.
  • Option two: Print a colour copy of the island map to replace a blank copy, once the lesson has been completed.

Celebrate the conclusion of the eSmart Digital Licence quest!

Once all four island maps are completed and displayed, provide each learner with a central island map, or print a single large island map to represent the entire group.

Invite all learners to sign around this central island or, if suitable, attach their newly earned Digital Licences to it as a symbol of their commitment to positive digital citizenship.

Reward individual progress with the worksheets

Distribute island maps

Locate the island map for the risk area you will cover. Print A4 or A3 copies for each student; A3 is best for a classroom wall display. After the lesson, distribute the maps to reinforce learning. They can be pasted into workbooks or displayed in the classroom.

Track learning progress

Once learners have met the exit pass criteria for a risk area lesson, award them the corresponding island map. Encourage learners to personalise their maps by colouring in, writing reflections, or customising their badge. Use the blank spaces on the maps for additional notes, top-up activities, or reflections.

These activities can be done during class time, assigned as homework, or used as a flipped learning task at the start of the next lesson.

Idea

Extend learning at home

To extend learning beyond the classroom and engage families in these activities, consider sending the maps home with learners by using the QR code that links directly to the corresponding risk area (or completion) YouTube video. Watching these videos and colouring the maps at home is a great way to encourage conversations about online safety outside of the classroom.

Encourage learners to colour in their printable worksheets at home with their parents or carers. While colouring together, they can discuss what they learned about the specific risk area covered in the lesson.
They can also share their thoughts on topics like online safety, respect, or healthy screen time habits by writing on the maps. For example: "Our family rule is to always check the source of information before sharing," or, "We agreed to limit screen time before bed to improve our sleep."
