In this learning pathway we introduce a number of societal issues and problematic online behaviours which have emerged in the digital world.

This is by no means a comprehensive list or a thorough examination of the respective issues. The selected issues are provided as a stimulus to help you choose an issue for further investigation.

You will choose one societal issue or antisocial behaviour associated with the Internet that you would like to investigate further. You will publish an editorial on your course blog, focusing on the issue you select based on your reading of open access resources you find online. Your blog post will contribute to building your online identity in achieving the learning outcome for this microcourse.
