NSTeens.org was created through a partnership between Sprint® and the Internet safety experts at NetSmartz® Workshop, a program of the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children® (NCMEC). NSTeens resources empower tweens (children ages 8 - 12) to make safer online choices through lessons taught in a series of animated videos highlighting the Internet-related adventures of a diverse cast of teenagers. Educators may reinforce the videos’ safety lessons through the use of accompanying activity cards.
The site also houses NetSmartz’s Real-Life Stories videos---a series of narratives from teens about real experiences of online victimization. Each of the videos is accompanied by an activity card to facilitate student discussion and understanding. These materials are suggested for youths ages 11-17.
All resources on NSTeens.org are free and offered in both English and Spanish.
