About The Webinar
Understanding Age Ratings and How to Support Safe Online Gaming
This webinar will provide teachers and practitioners with an understanding of the different age-rating systems for games around the world and provide practical guidance and advice on how to encourage safer gameplay online.
Gaming plays a huge role in the lives of children and young people. However, not all content is suitable for all ages and whilst many games are given an official age-rating, others are not as tightly controlled and could include age-inappropriate content, including depictions of violence, sexual activity, alcohol or illegal drugs.
In this webinar, Hilary Visser, specialist in media law and content regulation, explores the rationale behind different age-ratings for games, why some games may not be given an official rating and what steps staff can take to keep children from being exposed to inappropriate content.
