As a teacher you have the added advantage of being able to communicate with your students or clients without the pressure of singling any one student or client out and having a neutral conversation about social media among the kids in your class. Which is why it is important as well for teachers, to be in the know about the different platforms kids and teens are using and what the risks are. Being informed about the security and privacy options available on each platform is essential. This knowledge is equally important for school social workers, kids therapists, pediatricians, kids psychologists and any other professionals in the education industry or working with children.
For teachers and professionals in education we recommend the full in-person session of the Konsiente training where we share all of the topics mentioned in the section for parents, we add additional sections for teachers specifically and we make it an interactive session including live Q&A. These sessions are given in Papiamentu, English or Dutch primarily in Curacao, Bonaire, Aruba and the Netherlands.
