FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is this course?

A short standalone unit that covers 100% of the Tennessee Teen Social Media and Internet Safety Guidance. It is a single module rather than a full term of work.

Do I need this if I am already teaching one of the Tennessee CTE courses?

No. Tennessee Introduction to Computer Science, Coding I, Coding II, Cybersecurity I and Web Design Foundations each contain the same Social Media and Internet Safety module and each covers 100% of the guidance on its own. This standalone version is for schools that need to deliver the guidance outside those courses.

How long does it take?

About 10 contact hours. It is sized as a unit, not a term, so it fits inside an existing class rather than replacing one.

Is there any programming in it?

No. The unit is entirely about social media and internet safety; it has no programming language attached and no coding module.
