\"\"<\/a>Two pupils from Mount Pleasant Primary School, Abbie and Rebecca won first prize in a National Competition for Internet Safety Resources. \u00a0As part of a Scottish Government action plan to improve internet safety a competition was launched in conjunction with Young Scot and Learning and Teaching\u00a0 Scotland.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Abbie and Rebecca planned, designed and made a game which would be played by primary age children. \u00a0Their game was designed to promote internet safety and was a cross between Snakes and Ladders and Monopoly. \u00a0Pupils would throw a dice and move round the board which was laid out like Snakes and Ladders. \u00a0If they landed on a \u201cBad space\u201d they would pick up an Exclamation Mark card which would give a bad example of internet safety, eg \u201cYou have given out your password to your friend, move back 2 spaces\u201d. \u00a0The Question Mark cards were good examples of internet safety eg \u201cYou have changed your password, move forward 2 spaces\u201d.<\/p>\n

They were overall winners on the Primary Age Group and won a Digital Flip HD video camera for the school. \u00a0Mount Pleasant School was so delighted with their new camera that they bought the girls a pink USB stick for their transition to High School.\u00a0 Their game will be manufactured and included in a resource pack which will be distributed to schools and will be able to be viewed on the website www.scotland.gov.uk\/InternetSafety<\/p>\n

They were both delighted and hope that their game will help 7-11 year olds understand how to keep safe online.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
