We created this video using storytelling to make children aware of the dangerous situations that can be caused by their interactions with the Internet. 

 

Our story shows Penny, a young girl receiving a message from an unknown user, Nikos, on her social media page. Nick eventually suggests that he and Penny meet in person.  Penny refuses.  Nick continues to pursue Penny by sending her photos of places where she hangs out, her school, and her home to intimidate and frighten her.  Viewers have the opportunity to follow the story, identify with the characters, express their own thoughts and concerns, and ultimately suggest solutions or different ways of handling such a situation.
