Susan, an elementary teacher in Israel says:

 

    The activity that seemed to have the most effect on my elementary students was in fact a very simple one to reinforce the importance of non disclosure of private information.

There were six steps to the activity.

1) Looking at an example of an online registration form and marking which information they are willing to give freely, and which information they would offer only after checking with their parents.

2) Class discussion about the possible outcomes of disclosure of private information

3) Visiting a web site which provides names and addresses for telephone numbers entered

4) Visiting a web site which provides photos of homes based on addresses

5) Visiting a web site which provides a map and written directions to any address in the country.

6) Summing up session - discussion about how their thoughts on the subject had changed
