My Online World
Developed in partnership with the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NCCA), the five lessons in the ‘My Online World’ unit are designed to support teachers in planning learning and teaching for first year students.
The lessons are linked to the following learning outcomes in Strand Two: Making healthy choices in the Junior Cycle Social, Personal and Health Education (SPHE) short course (2023).
About this unit of learning
Each lesson addresses at least one learning outcome (2.7, 2.8, 2.9 – see p.2), and due to the nature of SPHE, there may also be opportunities to address additional learning outcomes in Strands 1, 3 and 4.
In line with the three cross-cutting elements that support effective teaching and learning in SPHE, these lessons support students to become more self-aware and aware of others, include opportunities for classroom dialogue, and prompt students to reflect.
Lessons are supported by complementary PowerPoint slides available below.
