The aim is to empower students to identify suspicious activities, safeguard their data, and navigate digital communication with wit and wisdom.

High school students will plunge into the fascinating world of machine learning, fiddle with algorithms, locate weak spots in digital platforms, and devise protection plans.
Throughout the lesson, students will learn to set up protective features across their profiles, detect signs of manipulation, and actively resist them.
