Are you authentic online?
In this Class Quest students discover that not everything you see or read online is real. Someone can pretend to be different. In this case, that person is Brad, Isobel's neighbor. He sells the sickening drink E-water. A drink that, according to him, ensures that you get the biggest muscles. The students join Isobel to gather evidence against the boy next door because he is making innocent people sick! In this way, they also learn what the consequences can be of pretending to be different on the internet.
Learning goals
Students learn...
- that not everything you see or read on the internet is real.
- that you can pretend to be different on the internet

Points
With the classquest, points can be earned for the game. Individually, but also in class. The points the students, who are trained as Cyber Agents through HackShield, collect determine their place in the Honor Roll. The best Cyber Agents stand a chance to win exclusive HackShield prizes or even be honored by the mayor and/or police.
After completing each classquest, which can only be played through a Teacher's Account, you as a teacher will receive a code. The students can enter this code in their individual account, after which they receive points and a Shield. These are reflected in their HackShield account.
