| Presentations and Workshops
Our presentations have been written to encompass many age groups, from students, beginning with fourth grade, to adults. These presentations encompass Cyber Bullying, Internet Safety, Cyber Predators, and Cyber Luring.
We have two adult workshops, and an interactive student workshop designed as a follow-up program to the Student's Internet Safety and Bullying Presentations. Software programs are utilized to reinforce the teachings on Internet Safety, Cyber Predators, Cyber Luring, and other areas of concern. These software programs will be discussed in the Internet Safety Interactive Presentation in the Presentation/Wkshop section.
The following pages will provide details of our individual presentations and workshops.

"Missing" Software Overview
Zack spent all his waking hours talking to strangers on the Internet. Now he has disappeared. Can you find him?
You are going to assist the Royal Canadian Police to recover a boy, Zack, who is missing from his home, actually coerced by an Internet predator (Fantasma) to join him in California. The story is based on a true account, but all the characters you will see in the game are actors.
Brief synopsis: A computer game about Internet luring.
Zack is a great kid. He's just having a bad year. His parents have split up. His dad is stressed, taking care of things at home and at work. He's been working late at the office every night, and now he's cancelled their vacation.
So Zack is steaming mad. He's started skipping school, sleeping in until noon. He spends all his waking hours on his computer, building his own website. And he's so talented. He designs amazing games starring a fantasy character named Zackman.
Zack is also building a family photo album. Not your normal boring snapshots. He's animated them so they're really funny. The problem is, anyone who visits the website can find out everything about Zack: name, address, school, sports...even family secrets.
While surfing the Internet, Zack discovers a chat room called Zine Scene where he can yak with kids. A lot of them are just boasting. But there's one guy called Fantasma who designed a website, California Dreaming, all about the great clothes and beaches around San Diego. This zine is so cool! Rollerblading at pacific Beach, surfing at La Jolla.
Fantasma is an even better animator than Zack, but he doesn't boast or anything. He sends Zack stuff to help him out. Like new animation software. And he's really sympathetic about the problems with Zack's dad. So when Fantasma offers him a job, Zack jumps at the chance. Well, wouldn't you.
