    The internet is a brilliant resource that you can use to


    do lots of different things.

    online:
    • Don’t reply to messages that harass or annoy you.
    • Keep the Message.
    • Block the Sender.
    • Talk to someone you trust, and get support.
    • Report the Problem.

    Visual Deception:
    What are deepfakes?

    Deepfakes are fake videos created


    using digital software, machine
    learning and face swapping.

    Deepfakes are computer-created


    artificial videos in which images are
    combined to create new footage
    that depicts events, statements or
    action that never actually happened.
    Deepfakes: How does it work?

    Deep Fakes use a technology similar to facial


    recognition used in apps such as Snapchat’s face
    swap or filters function but deep fakes augment
    your facial features to map faces to “landmark”
    points like the corners of your eyes and mouth,
    your nostrils, and the contour of your jawline to
    make the transformation appear much more
    realistic.

    GAN can also be used to generate new audio


    from existing audio, or new text from existing text
    – it is a multiuse technology.
    HOW TO SPOT DEEP FAKES?

    We need to use critical thinking and ask


    ourselves key questions such as:
    ● Who and why is someone sharing
    this video?
    ● Who or what is the original source?
    ● Is the person in the video saying
    something you’d never expect them
    to say?
    ● Does the video advance someone
    else’s agenda? Who benefits from
    this video?

    online wellbeing
    LET’S DISCUSS DIGITAL STRESS

    Digital stress refers to


    stress we get from using
    digital devices (e.g.
    smartphones, laptops,
    tablets, game consoles)
    and digital media (e.g.
    social media, online
    games, messenger apps).

    Making Time for
    Rest and Reflection
    ● Turn off your notifications.

    ● Play a game of “phone stack” with your friends.

    ● Log out of all your social networks, turn off wi-fi or


    turn off your phone at bedtime.

    ● Schedule screen free times.

    ● Take an occasional break from social media and


    digital devices.

    13
    Changing Habits and Attitudes
    ● Don’t compare yourself to
    people you see online –
    including your friends.

    ● Be in the moment. Enjoy


    what you’re doing and
    don’t worry about getting
    pictures of it!

    ● Accept that you can’t be


    there for everything – even
    virtually.

    ● Don’t take it personally.
