Cyber Wellness
Cyber Wellness education at Xingnan takes on a collaborative approach between the Character and Citizenship Education (CCE) Department and the Information, Communication & Data Management (ICDM) Department, whereby the former guides Xingnanians' online behaviour in making sound decisions anchored by their moral compass and the latter provides opportunities for students to demonstrate their learning of such moral values in a real-world context.
The 3 Cyber Wellness Key Messages
Embrace the affordances of technology while maintaining a balanced lifestyle between offline and online activities.
Be a safe and responsible user of technology and maintain a positive online presence.
Be responsible for personal well-being in the cyberspace.
Apart from practising Cyber Wellness behaviour at various Digital Literacy learning opportunities, Xingnanians also learn about Cyber Wellness during Form Teacher Guidance Period (FTGP).
