Deepening

The Trainer invites the participants to an open space where a line from masking tape is in the middle of the floor. Ask all participants to stand on one side of the room. 

Readout statements and ask participants to step over the line to the other side of the room if the statement applies to them. After each statement, you ask participants to look around the room and see who is standing where. Check in with participants to hear their experiences. 

Let participants step back every time so they can start afresh for each statement. Use as few or as many statements as you deem fit. 

The trainer calls out ‘Cross the line if you: 

1. Know fully what Facebook is doing with your private data. 

2. Have been blocked from a social media account. 

3. Had your private pictures shared without your knowledge or permission. 

4. Experienced hate speech or bullying Online. 

5. Were not able to access a certain internet source because your government blocked it. 

6. Had to block or unfriend someone because of the way they were talking to you Online. 

7. Have read comments on social media that made you feel uncomfortable. 

The trainer is free to include other appropriate and relevant statements, to suit the participants. The trainer can also ask (a) participant(s) to come up with a statement.
