Your stories
Fabrizio Testa docente di diritto ed economia politica Savigliano (Cuneo)
L'efficace formazione di Vivi Internet, al meglio mi ha reso ancora più sensibile, come docente ma anche come cittadino, a questi temi: non solo i nostri studenti, ma anche tutti noi, siamo immersi nel digitale e dobbiamo conoscerne i rischi per poterne apprezzare al meglio le potenzialità.
Eleonora Conte 18 anni studentessa Savigliano (Cuneo)
Ho ricevuto un messaggio dove mi è stato richiesto di pagare una tassa doganale cliccando su un link per sbloccare un pacco in arrivo. In passato avrei cliccato istintivamente anche solo per curiosità, ma grazie alle informazioni apprese durante i webinar di Vivi Internet, al meglio non ci sono cascata!
Aurelia Cassar Docente di lettere Roma
Vivi Internet, al meglio was a great achievement and, above all, it involved boys and girls at a very delicate age who are particularly exposed to the dangers of the Internet and social media. For example, one of my students last year was the victim of a dangerous situation, becoming the object of online attention from a stalker in adulthood. We also got out of it thanks to the postal police and, aware of this case, we were happy to undertake a path that protects young people from these dangers by providing tools to be used preventively.

Vivi Internet, al meglio also helps to create facilitating contexts for bringing up cases of cyberbullying within the school, which can then be addressed in a shared way as an educational community.
Vanna De Candia Genitore Roma
Vivi Internet, al meglio has given me tools to help my children, teens and preteens, take advantage of technology without getting engulfed by it and not putting themselves in danger. And enabling children's access to social media requires knowledge tools.
Eugenio Trucco 19 anni studente Savigliano (Cuneo)
Mi hanno colpito i rischi relativi alla scarsa sicurezza del web. Ora quando navigo sui siti internet presto maggiore attenzione alla loro sicurezza, controllo che sulla barra degli indirizzi ci sia il lucchetto ed effettuo gli altri controlli che avete suggerito durante il percorso di Vivi Internet al meglio, anche per evitare virus informatici o truffe.
Meris Gatto docente Volpago del Montello, Treviso
Con Vivi Internet, al meglio sono stati affrontati i vari temi, come benessere digitale, privacy policy, fact checking, cyberbullismo e odio online, storytelling. Laformazione mi ha permesso di approfondire alcuni aspetti di internet che non conoscevo e che ho potuto poi condividere in classe con i miei alunni.
