The course comprises eight lessons lasting approximately 45 minutes. The lessons make extensive use of activities, worksheets, videos and other multimedia to help young people understand, discuss and navigate complex issues that result from the proliferation of sexual imagery in the media and on the Internet.
- Part 1 is an introductory activity and introduces the question: what is sexual content? It delves into the implications and impact of these images.
- Parts 2 and 3 look in more detail at the impact of sexual imagery, exploring the implications on body image, the use of celebrities, and what children and young people view as ‘normal’. [Click to see sample pages of Part 2 and Part 3.]
- Parts 4 and 5 tackle the fact that sexual content does not reflect reality but rather a fantasy side of human sexuality, and digs into why it’s important to be able to distinguish between the two. [See Part 5 sample pages.]
- Parts 6 and 7 support young people in taking control and protecting themselves online. [Part 6 sample pages.]
- Part 8 is the concluding activity that brings all the other lessons together and encourages children and young people to develop their own approach.
