About the project

The purpose of NONOplus/Trygg bruk is to establish and act as the national awareness network node in Norway, and to empower all users so that they can use electronic media in a fun and positive way. 

The node’s core task is to increase the public knowledge of the potential of electronic communication technologies, and the potential dangers associated with them. This will be done by utilising already existing resources, human and institutional, in addition to a vast body of recent research data. The node will work towards maintaining and developing our role as a national resource centre for all efforts on safe use of digital communications technologies.

In striving for our goals as a national node, we will play an active role in reaching public schools and educational institutions, so we can inform and enlighten both our educators and students in a safe way in their day to day use of, and acquaintance with new and ever-changing media. We aim for a wide and intelligent use of the internet and mobile technology, so that children will be able to show healthy criticism and awareness regarding both the use and the contents of the World Wide Web.

About the site

This site is in Norwegian, and its main target group is children, parents and teachers. The site gives insight to subjects such as Internet, mobile phones, chat, privacy policies and rights in Norway, cyberbullying and others. This site also provides several modules for schools at a primary and secondary level. These modules gives examples for how teachers can approach and implement the Internet in their and their students work.

In addition, we feature some games, tests and quizzes for both young and old to challenge themselves through - and hopefully become more aware and more safe.
