Learn by example, demonstrate understanding.
When we teach students about phishing attacks or how to secure social media accounts, we walk them through the apps they actually use. Then we test their understanding through lifelike scenarios and interactive simulations.
Since micro lessons are easy to digest, students can learn through the self-paced UpSavvy app and teachers can save time developing digital citizenship programs for the classroom.
