WHY THIS COURSE
This training proposal seeks to contribute to social organizations, areas of government and other issues related to children and youth acquire knowledge and enhance their work on projects related to the right of children and adolescents to a safe and responsible use of information technologies and communication technologies (ICTs).
organizations involved in protecting and promoting children's rights are everyday references on the phenomena of violence to which children and adolescents are exposed through the web and other technologies and how their rights are violated: the invasion of privacy, harassment by adults (grooming), peer harassment (cyberbullying), employment of children in pornography, child sexual exploitation (ESI) and all forms of sexual violence for which the Internet has become a new stage in which the aberrant production of materials linked to ESI and their distribution is a growing phenomenon.
believe that the way to work the concept of Responsible Use of ICT from the organizations is to install the same capacity to promote the construction of strategies de trabajo que ayuden a los niños, las niñas y los adolescentes a elaborar criterios para la navegación y la interacción en línea, desde un marco de respeto y de cuidado de la propia integridad psicofísica y la de los demás.
El Programa Internet Segura, por un uso responsable de las TIC, que lleva adelante Chicos.net con apoyo de SCS y ECPAT desde 2006, ha elaborado diferentes acciones a lo largo de este tiempo tendientes a prevenir estos problemas y a fortalecer las capacidades que niños, niñas y jóvenes, sus maestros y referentes familiares y sociales necesitan para enfrentar estos flagelos, sin dejar de aprovechar los beneficios que implica el ingreso de las TIC en la sociedad.
Se tendrán account of regional initiatives, especially those belonging to organizations that make up the network for the right of children and adolescents to a safe and responsible use of information technologies and communication.
Thus, we define the proposal online training that will enable organizations and other participants understand the scope of the issue and encourage them to engage in projects aimed at the Prevention of Sexual Violence against children and adolescents through ICT. OBJECTIVES

• Promote capacity for analysis and to create strategies for preventing violence in the interactions over the Internet, cell phones and other devices.

METHOD OF STUDIED
The course will take place in an online environment for six weeks. This means that we will use a training platform to present the content, activities, materials and tasks.
The focus of the course is given by the contents and related resources, and support the interaction between the tutor and participants. The tutor will work instances in which the students can recognize, sort out the difficulties that may be present and ensure that materials to which access can be used without problems.
virtual instances will work through the platform for interaction tutor / participant and all participants, communication for collaborative work, case analysis and discussion, presentation and monitoring of activities.
Participation in the course and communication with their tutor group is basically asynchronous. This implies that there is no specific hours provided for access to online learning environment. However, to achieve the purposes and the decision of tasks in a collaborative way, it has established a weekly working schedule. So, every Monday will be performed opening of new content and working instructions, and the closure of each of the tasks that the students performed the previous week.
Obviously, for this strategy is feasible and yields results, it is essential that participants have adequate connectivity and access to Internet services each week to advance the process.
is proposed for training a constructivist philosophy, which lets you build the concepts and learning activities among all participants. It will use real background tasks that allow transfer and apply the concepts and situations that have arisen in different organizations around the safe use of Internet, the new learning to achieve.
