Thank You To Our Sponsors!!
With our BeSeen app gaining a lot of attention during the last several weeks-- especially since we launched an ad in USA Today-- wed like to take a moment to thank our sponsors--CTIA Wireless Foundation, Carnegie Mellon University, Verizon Foundation-- without whom BeSeen would have never been possible.
If you are new to Web Wise Kids or BeSeen, here’s more about the game:
BeSeen was created by Carnegie Mellon University and Web Wise Kids to teach youth how to be responsible in social networks by securing their private and personal information, protecting their online reputation and defending their peers.
This online safety mobile application is a single-player game that simulates a social networking website. The player creates a profile and starts earning “friend�? characters and interacting with them. They learn about others through their posts and help them through challenges in order to win awards and make new friends.
In BeSeen, the ultimate quest is to make friends. At first, that is a matter of getting involved in school activities, but as more friends join a social circle, they bring their problems with them. To keep friends and make more, it’s important not only to be involved but also to be a good friend.
You can learn more about BeSeen or download the free lesson materials on the Web Wise Kids
website.
