Address misinformation among students with a positive social media approach

Did you know that misinformation is 70% more likely to be retweeted than the truth? And on average, students spend 8.3 hours of screen media time per day (not including time for school or homework). 

The Social Institute partners with K-12 schools to deliver our turnkey #WinAtSocial Program that helps educators empower students to use social media in healthy, high-character ways. With lessons that address topics like misinformation, our positive approach is sustainable throughout the academic year, and it’s one that students co-create, respect, and embrace.

Are your students:

  • Unknowingly spreading misinformation and need help building their news literacy?
  • Using social media without regard to future consequences?
  • Trying to navigate challenging or harmful social-emotional situations?
  • Hyper-focused on how many “likes” they get?
  • Anxious due to gossiping, online drama, or cyberbullying?
  • Unaware of the private info they’re sharing publicly?

Get in touch and we’ll share how schools are supporting students, faculty, and families with our unique approach.

Praise for The Social Institute

 

Oldfields School Logo - TSI Partner

“All too often the topic of social media in schools is delivered through a negative approach. What The Social Institute brought to our girls was such a relatable, healthy, constructive message that the students began to take ownership of right before our eyes. For the first time, they heard an adult tell them TO USE social media, which allowed them to be engaged when it came time to learn how TO WIN at social media.”
