Magna Carta: My Digital Rights – Resources from the British Library

[elsiegee40]

My Digital Rights - The British Library

 

Magna Carta: My Digital Rights is a new national schools’ programme by the British Library inviting young people across the UK and overseas to consider their rights and responsibilities online. This project has been jointly conceived by the World Wide Web Foundation, British Library, Southbank Centre and British Council as part of a collaborative programme to celebrate the 800th anniversary of Magna Carta and the 25th anniversary of the World Wide Web.

 

Exploring topics such as free speech, censorship, cyberbullying and surveillance, the project provides teachers with a range of lessons plans, films, commentaries and collection items for use by Secondary and FE students. Resources will support students to develop the skills and knowledge to explore political and social issues critically, as they become more informed citizens who understand the roles of law, justice and liberty.
