ClassAct | Office of the eSafety Commissioner Join over a thousand teachers by taking the ClassAct 50 Task Challenge to revisit essential digital citizenship skills with your students and to encourage a culture of respect and positive interaction in their online and offline worlds. At a time when many students are expected to sign digital use contracts and agree to acceptable use policies, the ClassAct 50 Task Challenge has been designed to support school classes, cohorts and communities to consider and act on the issues the digital world can present. The challenge provides a mix of quick, daily tasks designed to help children take control of their online safety, prompt thinking around respectful relationships and to know where to go to find support if things go wrong. The tasks encourage self-reflection, group discussion and class action.
