Assembly: Self discovery and social media (Secondary)

Teacher notes

This assembly is most suitable for KS3 and above. Younger pupils below this age might not have used YouTube independently but will likely be aware of it and perhaps know family members who use it. The assembly 'Social media for good' is a perfect way to start this exploration and we'd advise looking at that assembly first. **Note: In the film, Gika shows us how his interest in astrology and tarot cards helped him with personal issues of identity.** **National Curriculum objectives:** KS3 PSHE - Developing digital literacy and media awareness. - Evaluating online content critically and understanding commercial influence. KS4 PSHE - Evaluating the credibility of online content. - Making informed lifestyle and financial decisions based on critical evaluation of media. **If you wanted to use this in upper KS2**, these PSHE objectives apply - please watch the film first: KS2 PSHE - recognise ways in which the internet and social media can be used both positively and negatively. - about some of the different ways information is shared and used online.
