Have you noticed that when you go online or login to social media you are presented with content, news, articles or ads that somehow know the things that you are interested in?
It makes sense that you will see updates from people or organisations that you follow, but what may be less obvious are the algorithms (complex mathematical formulas) working in the background which determine what content is presented in your newsfeed or search results.
The results that we are presented with are likely to reflect the likes and interests that our browsing history and personal data suggests we would like to see more of – after all, online platforms want you to use their site and to stay for as long as possible.
There are lots more ideas and activities on the Safer Internet Day page, and you could start by checking out 10 Ways to Get Involved in Safer Internet Day.
From useful conversation starters, to free activities and resources, there are helpful suggestions to get you started!
