Google says it is also committed to helping students stay safe online. As a result, the company has developed a new media literacy curriculum, in partnership with leading experts like the National Association of Media Literacy Education (NAMLE), that helps students learn how to navigate the internet safely and responsibly. This curriculum covers a wide range of topics, including how to identify credible sources of information, how to avoid online scams, and how to be respectful of others online.
