WEBVTT

00:00:19.120 --> 00:00:20.400
>>Hello and good morning,

00:00:20.400 --> 00:00:24.400
and welcome to the ninth
digital forum on prevention.

00:00:24.400 --> 00:00:25.920
My name is John Picarelli

00:00:25.920 --> 00:00:28.360
and I'm the Director of the
Center for Prevention Programs

00:00:28.360 --> 00:00:32.400
and Partnerships here at the
Department of Homeland Security.

00:00:32.400 --> 00:00:36.600
And I know we have a very full
program for the next two days,

00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:40.800
but what I want to do is
briefly introduce the Center

00:00:40.800 --> 00:00:43.320
and these digital forums

00:00:43.320 --> 00:00:46.000
and then turn the floor
over to our honorable

00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:49.600
senior leaders for
their opening remarks.

00:00:49.600 --> 00:00:54.400
As of last May, Secretary
Mallorca's established

00:00:54.400 --> 00:00:57.960
our Center to expand the
department's ability

00:00:57.960 --> 00:00:59.400
to prevent targeted violence

00:00:59.400 --> 00:01:01.680
and terrorism through
the development of

00:01:01.680 --> 00:01:03.680
local prevention frameworks.

00:01:03.680 --> 00:01:05.400
For these local
prevention frameworks,

00:01:05.400 --> 00:01:07.840
we leverage community-based
partnerships

00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:11.360
that help prevent individuals
from radicalizing the violence

00:01:11.360 --> 00:01:13.440
and intervene to help those

00:01:13.440 --> 00:01:16.480
who have while ensuring all
prevention efforts

00:01:16.480 --> 00:01:18.920
are consistent with
privacy protection,

00:01:18.920 --> 00:01:20.760
civil rights and
civil liberties,

00:01:20.760 --> 00:01:22.480
as well as all applicable laws.

00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:25.000
These digital forums help
us to share resources

00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:27.000
from all of our sectors

00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:29.920
and levels of
society and government.

00:01:29.920 --> 00:01:31.920
They help to equip, empower

00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:36.200
and share innovative
technology-based solutions

00:01:36.200 --> 00:01:40.600
that enable prevention with all
of you at the local level.

00:01:40.600 --> 00:01:44.800
In working to prevent
targeted violence,

00:01:44.800 --> 00:01:47.040
we often work within schools.

00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:52.480
So CP3, along with DHS' Office
of Intelligence and Analysis

00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:56.520
know and believe that the threat
of targeted violence in schools

00:01:56.520 --> 00:02:00.240
will remain with the
continued back and forth

00:02:00.240 --> 00:02:03.160
return to school that
we're experiencing.

00:02:03.160 --> 00:02:06.480
This awareness is also in line
with the recent warnings

00:02:06.480 --> 00:02:09.520
from the Surgeon General
of an increasing

00:02:09.520 --> 00:02:11.800
mental health
crisis among youth.

00:02:11.800 --> 00:02:15.120
All communities, especially
schools, educators, teachers

00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:17.120
and students, are
working to mitigate

00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:20.160
the impacts of prolonged
social isolation,

00:02:20.160 --> 00:02:23.400
loss of social connection,
financial hardships

00:02:23.400 --> 00:02:26.960
and other potential risk factors
that may make individuals

00:02:26.960 --> 00:02:30.120
more susceptible to
radicalization of violence

00:02:30.120 --> 00:02:33.000
during this COVID-19 pandemic.

00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:36.280
We really hope that the experts
over the next two days will help

00:02:36.280 --> 00:02:38.760
inform you more about
multi-disciplinary

00:02:38.760 --> 00:02:42.000
approaches to student and
educator well-being

00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:45.080
and other solutions that
support prevention,

00:02:45.080 --> 00:02:47.240
including how to
improve digital literacy

00:02:47.240 --> 00:02:51.000
and critical thinking skills
and cybersecurity resources

00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:52.920
that build resilience.

00:02:52.920 --> 00:02:55.240
I'd like to especially
thank our colleagues

00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:57.160
at the Department of Education,

00:02:57.160 --> 00:03:00.080
especially the Office
of Education Technology,

00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:03.400
as well as our colleagues
here in DHS Cybersecurity

00:03:03.400 --> 00:03:05.920
and Infrastructure
Security Agency

00:03:05.920 --> 00:03:08.400
and their School
Safety Task Force for their

00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:11.480
instrumental help in pulling
this forum together

00:03:11.480 --> 00:03:15.160
and for serving with
us today as co-hosts.

00:03:15.160 --> 00:03:17.680
I also want to dedicate
this digital forum

00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:20.240
to our CP3 regional
prevention coordinator,

00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:23.000
Selena Green, who
recently passed away.

00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:26.000
She was a shining light and an
amazing team member who I know

00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:28.520
was looking forward to
leading a breakout room

00:03:28.520 --> 00:03:32.080
and helping with duties
related to this forum.

00:03:32.080 --> 00:03:34.920
She'll be missed and the
partnerships and network

00:03:34.920 --> 00:03:39.720
that she built in her region are
evident at this forum today.

00:03:39.720 --> 00:03:41.800
So thank you all for
joining us today

00:03:41.800 --> 00:03:43.520
and now I'd like to
briefly introduce

00:03:43.520 --> 00:03:47.960
our Under Secretary for
Strategy, Policy and Planning,

00:03:47.960 --> 00:03:49.560
Mr. Robert Silvers,

00:03:49.560 --> 00:03:52.640
who will provide the first
set of opening remarks.

00:03:52.640 --> 00:03:54.840
Mr. Under Secretary, the
floor is yours, thank you.

00:03:56.400 --> 00:03:59.800
>>John, thank you so much
and thank you to everyone

00:03:59.800 --> 00:04:01.720
for joining. Good morning.

00:04:01.720 --> 00:04:03.600
My name's Rob Silvers, I'm
the Under Secretary

00:04:03.600 --> 00:04:07.000
for Policy at the Department
of Homeland Security.

00:04:07.000 --> 00:04:12.360
And we're very excited to host
this 9th digital forum

00:04:12.360 --> 00:04:17.360
on prevention with a focus
today on student security,

00:04:17.360 --> 00:04:20.240
on student safety
and well-being.

00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:22.720
And we're doing that together,
we're delighted to do that

00:04:22.720 --> 00:04:23.960
together with our colleagues

00:04:23.960 --> 00:04:27.280
from the Department
of Education.

00:04:27.280 --> 00:04:30.840
Here at the Department of
Homeland Security every day

00:04:30.840 --> 00:04:36.160
we are working to prevent and
detect and mitigate violence.

00:04:36.160 --> 00:04:39.640
We want to empower local
efforts, your efforts,

00:04:39.640 --> 00:04:42.320
to prevent individuals
in your communities

00:04:42.320 --> 00:04:45.520
from proceeding down the
path to violence.

00:04:45.520 --> 00:04:48.960
And in this forum, we're focused
on what educators and teachers

00:04:48.960 --> 00:04:52.520
and students and schools
could do to mitigate

00:04:52.520 --> 00:04:55.400
and address the threat
of targeted violence

00:04:55.400 --> 00:04:58.400
and terrorism in
their communities.

00:04:58.400 --> 00:05:03.400
As John mentioned, we're all
dealing with the ripple effects

00:05:03.400 --> 00:05:08.040
from the COVID pandemic,
the social isolation,

00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:10.720
the loss of social connectivity

00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:15.880
and in person touchpoints,
financial hardships

00:05:15.880 --> 00:05:20.000
and other stresses,
all of which are,

00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:22.600
could potentially leave
individuals susceptible

00:05:22.600 --> 00:05:25.040
to engage in violence.

00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:27.600
And it's especially
true for our students.

00:05:27.600 --> 00:05:30.880
We think also that the threat
of violence will persist

00:05:30.880 --> 00:05:34.680
as more children return
to school fulltime.

00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:38.600
And we've seen increases in
online threats while kids

00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:42.400
and adults, in fact, have been
spending so much time

00:05:42.400 --> 00:05:47.480
doing their schooling or
their work remotely.

00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:50.040
So we're committed to
addressing these threats

00:05:50.040 --> 00:05:51.520
and to keeping our kids safe,

00:05:51.520 --> 00:05:55.800
but we also know that we at the
Department of Homeland Security

00:05:55.800 --> 00:05:59.480
or even in the broader
federal government,

00:05:59.480 --> 00:06:01.800
we can't do that alone.

00:06:01.800 --> 00:06:06.120
This is why we stress that
preventing targeted violence

00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:10.040
requires the participation
of all stakeholders.

00:06:10.040 --> 00:06:12.760
And our digital forums,
like this one today,

00:06:12.760 --> 00:06:14.040
reflect this approach.

00:06:14.040 --> 00:06:16.280
We're bringing together
the key stakeholders.

00:06:16.280 --> 00:06:18.240
We've got schools,
we have state

00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:20.800
and local governments
represented.

00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:25.560
We have the academic
community, we have NGOs,

00:06:25.560 --> 00:06:27.800
think tanks and local
law enforcement.

00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:30.800
We have the tech industry
and many other interested

00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:33.840
stakeholders to raise
awareness of this problem

00:06:33.840 --> 00:06:37.640
and to develop innovative
solutions together.

00:06:37.640 --> 00:06:39.920
And outside of the
prevention space,

00:06:39.920 --> 00:06:43.120
we're committed to providing
you with the information

00:06:43.120 --> 00:06:45.720
and resources that you
need to feel safe.

00:06:45.720 --> 00:06:48.400
We've expanded our
collaborations efforts

00:06:48.400 --> 00:06:50.600
with the Department of Education

00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:54.320
and also with CISA,
Schools Safety Taskforce,

00:06:54.320 --> 00:06:58.040
that's the cybersecurity and
infrastructure security agency

00:06:58.040 --> 00:07:00.800
which is part of
our department.

00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:05.200
We enhanced our engagement at
all levels of the government

00:07:05.200 --> 00:07:06.760
and also with the
private sector.

00:07:06.760 --> 00:07:09.200
And we're just, we're checking
in with schoolboards, teachers,

00:07:09.200 --> 00:07:13.120
parents, students to make sure
they all have the information

00:07:13.120 --> 00:07:16.800
and resources they need
to keep kids safe,

00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:19.800
which is what
defines our mission.

00:07:19.800 --> 00:07:24.240
We know that the online threat
of false narratives,

00:07:24.240 --> 00:07:25.800
conspiracy theories,

00:07:25.800 --> 00:07:29.240
other kinds of disinformation
lead to violence.

00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:30.920
We know that all too well.

00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:34.880
That's why we're working and
others to develop digital

00:07:34.880 --> 00:07:39.600
literacy a toolkit to build
resilience to disinformation.

00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:42.240
That's just a critical
component of the work.

00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:45.000
And that brings us
to our digital forum.

00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:48.280
Over the next couple days you're
going to be hearing about

00:07:48.280 --> 00:07:50.200
some of the local efforts
that are underway

00:07:50.200 --> 00:07:52.360
from a variety of stakeholders

00:07:52.360 --> 00:07:54.000
as they discuss the incredible

00:07:54.000 --> 00:07:56.600
and innovative work that
their organizations

00:07:56.600 --> 00:07:58.360
are doing on the ground.

00:07:58.360 --> 00:07:59.760
And they're going
to discuss also how

00:07:59.760 --> 00:08:01.400
they're collaborating
with their government

00:08:01.400 --> 00:08:05.480
and non-profit private
industry partners.

00:08:05.480 --> 00:08:10.800
So the, we'll have a range of
incredible panels and workshops

00:08:10.800 --> 00:08:14.080
featuring true world-leading
experts and researchers

00:08:14.080 --> 00:08:17.200
and tech experts and
practioners to discuss

00:08:17.200 --> 00:08:20.960
community-based strategies
for prevention.

00:08:20.960 --> 00:08:22.480
Our first panel this afternoon,

00:08:22.480 --> 00:08:25.560
for example, will discuss
innovative solutions

00:08:25.560 --> 00:08:27.920
to promote positive
supportive communities

00:08:27.920 --> 00:08:30.800
that can respond to
online hate and violence.

00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:36.400
And we just know how some online
discourse is driving so many,

00:08:36.400 --> 00:08:40.240
especially young people
towards the path to violence.

00:08:40.240 --> 00:08:43.000
And so that's going to
be an important emphasis.

00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:45.640
We're going to have panels
discussing ways schools

00:08:45.640 --> 00:08:48.280
and educators are building
resilience against

00:08:48.280 --> 00:08:50.160
false narratives through
digital literacy

00:08:50.160 --> 00:08:53.560
and critical thinking
when online.

00:08:53.560 --> 00:08:56.480
We're going to share innovate
ways students are leading

00:08:56.480 --> 00:09:00.560
the creation of solutions to
targeted violence online.

00:09:00.560 --> 00:09:03.600
And we're also going to provide
an overview of cybersecurity

00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:06.160
resources that are
available for schools

00:09:06.160 --> 00:09:08.600
from our incredible
team at CISA.

00:09:08.600 --> 00:09:15.560
So I want to leave you in
closing with just one message.

00:09:15.560 --> 00:09:19.200
There is no mission more
important than this one

00:09:19.200 --> 00:09:23.000
that we do across a big
sprawling department.

00:09:23.000 --> 00:09:26.800
There is nothing more important
than protecting children

00:09:26.800 --> 00:09:28.400
in the school environment,

00:09:28.400 --> 00:09:31.160
and also protecting the teachers
and school administrators

00:09:31.160 --> 00:09:33.880
and parents who
put so much

00:09:33.880 --> 00:09:37.680
into the education
of our children.

00:09:37.680 --> 00:09:41.360
And that's why we're here today.

00:09:41.360 --> 00:09:43.680
I'm looking forward to everyone
taking in the insights

00:09:43.680 --> 00:09:45.760
from the next two days

00:09:45.760 --> 00:09:47.320
and I want to
thank, in advance,

00:09:47.320 --> 00:09:50.000
all the moderators,
panelists and attendees.

00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:51.760
I want to thank our
co-organizers of this

00:09:51.760 --> 00:09:54.400
digital forum, the Department
of Education's Office of

00:09:54.400 --> 00:09:55.960
Educational Technology

00:09:55.960 --> 00:09:59.480
and also our partners here
in the Department at CISA,

00:09:59.480 --> 00:10:01.880
the CISA school
Safety Task Force.

00:10:01.880 --> 00:10:06.760
And I especially want to
thank as well our own

00:10:06.760 --> 00:10:09.200
Center for Prevention
Programs and Partnerships,

00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:12.240
CP3 of which John Picarelli

00:10:12.240 --> 00:10:15.080
is the incredibly
talented director

00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:18.440
and leads an incredibly
talented team

00:10:18.440 --> 00:10:21.520
for the incredible
world-leading work

00:10:21.520 --> 00:10:24.680
that they are doing
in prevention.

00:10:24.680 --> 00:10:26.520
There's just nothing
more important.

00:10:26.520 --> 00:10:31.600
So I wish everyone the best for
a wonderful start to the forum.

00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:33.960
I'm grateful to be
with you here today.

00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:35.160
Thank you.

00:10:42.600 --> 00:10:44.960
>> Thank you, thank you, sir.

00:10:44.960 --> 00:10:48.400
And thank you, again,
for joining us

00:10:48.400 --> 00:10:50.600
and for the very
kind opening remarks

00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:52.800
as we get started
here today.

00:10:52.800 --> 00:10:57.440
Next, I would like to
introduce our cohost partner

00:10:57.440 --> 00:11:00.400
for this digital forum,

00:11:00.400 --> 00:11:01.960
the Executive
Assistant Director for

00:11:01.960 --> 00:11:06.600
Infrastructure Security at the
Cybersecurity Infrastructure

00:11:06.600 --> 00:11:10.160
Security Agency,
Dr. David Mussington.

00:11:10.160 --> 00:11:12.920
Thank you, Dr. Mussington,
and the floor is yours.

00:11:15.120 --> 00:11:17.920
>> Well, thanks John, and
thanks for the opportunity

00:11:17.920 --> 00:11:21.200
to speak at the 9th digital
forum on prevention.

00:11:21.200 --> 00:11:22.880
Thanks to the welcome
moderators, panelists

00:11:22.880 --> 00:11:24.600
and workshop leaders who
will share their knowledge

00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:27.920
and expertise with you over
the next couple of days.

00:11:27.920 --> 00:11:29.480
I'm David Mussington
and I serve as the

00:11:29.480 --> 00:11:30.880
Executive Assistant Director

00:11:30.880 --> 00:11:33.160
for Infrastructure
Security at the Cybersecurity

00:11:33.160 --> 00:11:34.600
and Infrastructure
Security Agency.

00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:36.720
That's a long title.

00:11:36.720 --> 00:11:37.920
On behalf of CISA,
I want to thank

00:11:37.920 --> 00:11:39.120
the Department of Education,

00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:41.480
especially the Office
of Educational Technology,

00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:44.600
Dr. Picarelli, whose team at the
Center for Prevention Program

00:11:44.600 --> 00:11:47.240
and Partnerships and our own
School Safety Task Force,

00:11:47.240 --> 00:11:51.200
which told me everything I
know about this issue,

00:11:51.200 --> 00:11:52.680
they know a lot more.

00:11:52.680 --> 00:11:54.800
As many of you know, the DHS
mission is to protect

00:11:54.800 --> 00:11:56.000
this great nation

00:11:56.000 --> 00:11:59.040
and keep our nations and
our citizens safe,

00:11:59.040 --> 00:12:01.000
including our most innocent.

00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:02.920
Under Secretary DeSilva has
underscored the ongoing

00:12:02.920 --> 00:12:04.320
and the impact the pandemic

00:12:04.320 --> 00:12:07.240
has had on our nation's youth
and school communities.

00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:10.280
Our students continue to contend
with the effect of the pandemic

00:12:10.280 --> 00:12:14.240
which led to periods of social
isolation, financial

00:12:14.240 --> 00:12:18.680
and academic stress and an
increase in cyber bullying.

00:12:18.680 --> 00:12:21.200
Our nation's students are also
spending more time online

00:12:21.200 --> 00:12:22.440
than ever before,

00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:24.040
using technology to
complete homework,

00:12:24.040 --> 00:12:25.280
communicate with peers

00:12:25.280 --> 00:12:28.360
and engage with
teachers and school staff.

00:12:28.360 --> 00:12:31.440
The spread of misinformation
has further exacerbated hate,

00:12:31.440 --> 00:12:33.520
harassment and violent rhetoric.

00:12:33.520 --> 00:12:35.800
These threats are often fueled
by false narratives,

00:12:35.800 --> 00:12:37.320
conspiracy theories

00:12:37.320 --> 00:12:40.800
and violent extremist rhetoric
spread online to recruit

00:12:40.800 --> 00:12:42.600
and incite others
to violence,

00:12:42.600 --> 00:12:45.640
all of which are concerns
for DHS and for CISA.

00:12:45.640 --> 00:12:48.520
Our growing dependence on
technology systems,

00:12:48.520 --> 00:12:49.600
coupled with emerging,

00:12:49.600 --> 00:12:52.680
evolving and increasingly
deceptive cyber threats

00:12:52.680 --> 00:12:55.440
demands enhanced
awareness and vigilance

00:12:55.440 --> 00:12:58.120
when it comes to our
online activity.

00:12:58.120 --> 00:13:00.360
For school communities and
for the nation's students,

00:13:00.360 --> 00:13:03.520
it's incumbent upon us to
provide tools to help ensure

00:13:03.520 --> 00:13:05.840
a broad awareness of the threat
of targeted violence

00:13:05.840 --> 00:13:07.040
and terrorism,

00:13:07.040 --> 00:13:11.760
as well as to amplify innovative
solutions for prevention.

00:13:11.760 --> 00:13:15.400
To close, this digital forum
marks an important milestone

00:13:15.400 --> 00:13:16.760
in our efforts to cultivate

00:13:16.760 --> 00:13:20.200
and expand our collaboration
efforts on school safety,

00:13:20.200 --> 00:13:22.200
and to engage with the
academic community

00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:25.400
in building awareness
and inspiring action.

00:13:25.400 --> 00:13:27.840
I welcome everyone to take part
in the panels, workshops

00:13:27.840 --> 00:13:30.160
and sessions happening
over the next two days

00:13:30.160 --> 00:13:31.960
and to continue having
these important

00:13:31.960 --> 00:13:34.200
and critical conversations
on school safety.

00:13:34.200 --> 00:13:36.240
We look forward to our
continued working together

00:13:36.240 --> 00:13:38.360
to keep our students
safe. Thanks.

00:13:40.680 --> 00:13:42.400
>> Thank you again,
Dr. Mussington,

00:13:42.400 --> 00:13:44.880
and thank you for joining
us this morning.

00:13:44.880 --> 00:13:48.280
With that, we have concluded
our opening remarks

00:13:48.280 --> 00:13:50.000
and so now I will turn the floor

00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:55.360
over to my colleague
here at cP3, Hala Furst,

00:13:55.360 --> 00:13:58.000
who will guide us into
the first sessions

00:13:58.000 --> 00:13:59.160
for the digital forum.

00:13:59.160 --> 00:14:01.040
Thank you all again for joining.

00:14:01.040 --> 00:14:02.720
Hala, over to you.

00:14:02.720 --> 00:14:04.360
>> Thank you, John,
thank you Dr. Mussington

00:14:04.360 --> 00:14:06.320
and thank you Under
Secretary Silvers

00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:08.000
for providing
those remarks.

00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:10.840
My name is Hala Furst and I'm
the Associate Director of the

00:14:10.840 --> 00:14:13.640
Strategic Engagement
Team at CP3.

00:14:13.640 --> 00:14:15.400
Before we get started, I
just wanted to provide

00:14:15.400 --> 00:14:17.400
a couple quick
housekeeping items

00:14:17.400 --> 00:14:20.080
to remind you about our
breakout networking rooms

00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:21.600
that we have scheduled
throughout the program

00:14:21.600 --> 00:14:23.400
over the next two days.

00:14:23.400 --> 00:14:26.040
So first, we understand that
there's some trouble

00:14:26.040 --> 00:14:29.200
with capacity and we
are working that.

00:14:29.200 --> 00:14:31.000
Please note that this
is being recorded,

00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:32.520
so the recording
will be available

00:14:32.520 --> 00:14:33.800
to everybody that registered,

00:14:33.800 --> 00:14:37.000
but we are trying to increase
capacity right now.

00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:40.040
Secondly, for this digital
forum, please be aware that

00:14:40.040 --> 00:14:43.320
because some of our sessions
allow for more engagement

00:14:43.320 --> 00:14:47.000
capabilities, for now
until asked to do so,

00:14:47.000 --> 00:14:50.840
we ask that you please keep your
video off and stay muted.

00:14:50.840 --> 00:14:52.800
If you have any
technology issues,

00:14:52.800 --> 00:14:54.400
please let us know in the chat.

00:14:54.400 --> 00:15:00.200
I see some of you have been
doing that and/or contact

00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:03.600
Larissa Kleewah who will
also be able to assist you.

00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:06.280
Between and after our panels,
we have several breakout room

00:15:06.280 --> 00:15:09.160
opportunities for you all
to engage in networking

00:15:09.160 --> 00:15:11.240
with other prevention
stakeholders,

00:15:11.240 --> 00:15:13.200
and we hope that you
take advantage of that.

00:15:13.200 --> 00:15:16.080
If you have not already emailed
our digital forum inbox,

00:15:16.080 --> 00:15:17.720
please let us know in the chat

00:15:17.720 --> 00:15:21.280
or via the digital forum
email if you'd like to join,

00:15:21.280 --> 00:15:23.040
and we can get you
set up for that.

00:15:23.040 --> 00:15:25.400
So our first
breakout is at 2 p.m.

00:15:25.400 --> 00:15:28.680
between the panels and it will
feature CP3 Regional Prevention

00:15:28.680 --> 00:15:31.320
Coordinator that covers
Region 1 stage,

00:15:31.320 --> 00:15:32.800
which includes Connecticut,

00:15:32.800 --> 00:15:35.120
Maine, Massachusetts,
New Hampshire,

00:15:35.120 --> 00:15:37.200
Rhode Island and Vermont.

00:15:37.200 --> 00:15:39.680
We've also listed
this info in the chat.

00:15:39.680 --> 00:15:42.160
And then after the second panel
we have another breakout room

00:15:42.160 --> 00:15:47.800
opportunity hosted by our Region
5 panel - sorry, Region 5,

00:15:47.800 --> 00:15:51.120
Regional Prevention Coordinators
covering the states of Illinois,

00:15:51.120 --> 00:15:55.360
Indiana, Minnesota, Ohio,
Michigan and Wisconsin.

00:15:55.360 --> 00:15:59.600
So again, that information
is also listed in the chat.

00:15:59.600 --> 00:16:01.840
So with that housekeeping
out of the way,

00:16:01.840 --> 00:16:03.400
again, please turn
your videos off

00:16:03.400 --> 00:16:05.000
and keep yourselves
muted until

00:16:05.000 --> 00:16:07.600
we have those
opportunities to connect.

00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:10.560
I'd like to get started
with our first workshop.

00:16:10.560 --> 00:16:12.640
So that's going to be
hosted by Colton Easton,

00:16:12.640 --> 00:16:13.960
a Threat Analyst Manager

00:16:13.960 --> 00:16:16.760
and Trainer with Safer
Schools Together

00:16:16.760 --> 00:16:18.560
who presents to police officers,

00:16:18.560 --> 00:16:20.600
school staff, parents
and students

00:16:20.600 --> 00:16:22.280
on social media awareness,

00:16:22.280 --> 00:16:24.720
cyber bullying and
online safety.

00:16:24.720 --> 00:16:26.080
So Colton, thank you
for being here,

00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:28.920
and I'll turn the
floor over to you.

00:16:39.240 --> 00:16:40.720
Colton, if you're speaking,
we can't hear you.

00:16:56.480 --> 00:16:58.600
Just bear with us
a moment, folks.

00:17:02.160 --> 00:17:04.320
Colton, if you can hear us,
can you put it in the chat

00:17:04.320 --> 00:17:06.640
so we can figure out
what's going on?

00:17:11.080 --> 00:17:14.400
Yep, thanks, thanks to those
in the chat, we are aware.

00:17:14.400 --> 00:17:17.800
Okay, so Colton can
hear us, that's great.

00:17:17.800 --> 00:17:19.000
There we go.

00:17:20.920 --> 00:17:23.360
I'm hearing something,
is that you, Colton?

00:17:36.680 --> 00:17:38.440
>> Hello, does this
work? There it is.

00:17:38.440 --> 00:17:39.600
>> Colton?

00:17:39.600 --> 00:17:40.840
>> So sorry about that.

00:17:40.840 --> 00:17:44.480
I was just trying to say, I
can't share my screen right now,

00:17:44.480 --> 00:17:47.280
so I'm hoping if I can do that.

00:17:47.280 --> 00:17:50.400
It says I can't share while
the other person is sharing.

00:17:50.400 --> 00:17:53.320
>> Right, we will be sharing,
we should be sharing for you,

00:17:53.320 --> 00:17:54.480
I believe.

00:17:54.480 --> 00:17:56.400
>> Okay, okay, no
problem, wonderful.

00:17:56.400 --> 00:17:58.000
Cool, we'll go from
there. Awesome.

00:17:58.000 --> 00:17:59.040
All right, I'm just
going to make my way

00:17:59.040 --> 00:18:00.520
over to the other seat here.

00:18:08.400 --> 00:18:11.160
>> Just want to make sure
we're all set up for that.

00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:13.560
>> All right, hello folks,
hello, good morning.

00:18:13.560 --> 00:18:14.920
>> There we go.
>> Perfect.

00:18:14.920 --> 00:18:17.000
So sorry for the
technical difficulties.

00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:18.440
Of course, as with Zoom,

00:18:18.440 --> 00:18:20.360
it's always going to
be something wrong.

00:18:20.360 --> 00:18:23.160
You would think we'd have it
together by now, by hey,

00:18:23.160 --> 00:18:25.200
that's where we are.

00:18:25.200 --> 00:18:26.440
>> Colton, sorry to interrupt.

00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:29.280
I'm being told that you should
be allowed to screen share now,

00:18:29.280 --> 00:18:31.880
so you should be
allowed to do it.

00:18:31.880 --> 00:18:33.040
>> I've got this here.

00:18:33.040 --> 00:18:35.280
Yeah, I can screen share now.

00:18:35.280 --> 00:18:37.800
It'll just be a little bit of a
higher quality, so I'll do this,

00:18:37.800 --> 00:18:39.600
just give me two seconds.

00:18:39.600 --> 00:18:41.400
>> Okay, great.

00:18:45.960 --> 00:18:48.240
Thanks for bearing
with us, everyone.

00:18:52.360 --> 00:18:54.720
There we go, okay, great.

00:19:00.520 --> 00:19:04.280
>> All right, I hope that looks
a little bit better. Cool.

00:19:04.280 --> 00:19:05.840
>> That's fantastic
- thanks, Colton.

00:19:05.840 --> 00:19:08.400
>> All right. So my name
is Colton Easton.

00:19:08.400 --> 00:19:10.440
I am the Project and
Training Manager,

00:19:10.440 --> 00:19:12.040
also Threat Analyst Manager,

00:19:12.040 --> 00:19:13.800
for Safer
Schools Together.

00:19:13.800 --> 00:19:17.040
Thank you so much for the DHS
for hosting our session today.

00:19:17.040 --> 00:19:18.960
This is going to be a
lot of information

00:19:18.960 --> 00:19:20.760
that we're going to try
to share with you folks.

00:19:20.760 --> 00:19:23.360
But I've been a trainer with
Safer Schools Together

00:19:23.360 --> 00:19:26.640
for the better part
of five years now.

00:19:26.640 --> 00:19:29.600
And you know, when I first
started as a Threat Analyst,

00:19:29.600 --> 00:19:31.160
our team was very, very small.

00:19:31.160 --> 00:19:34.400
And one thing I kind of realized
while going to all these

00:19:34.400 --> 00:19:36.800
wonderful conferences and
meeting wonderful people

00:19:36.800 --> 00:19:38.240
such as yourselves

00:19:38.240 --> 00:19:41.600
was that the school safety
world is very, very small,

00:19:41.600 --> 00:19:43.840
but how important it
is to really keep

00:19:43.840 --> 00:19:45.360
our kids safe online.

00:19:45.360 --> 00:19:48.600
You know, that work that we
do is just so, so important.

00:19:48.600 --> 00:19:50.560
So again, thank you so
much for hosting me.

00:19:50.560 --> 00:19:53.600
And what I want to do today
is share with you folks

00:19:53.600 --> 00:19:55.240
some of the current trends

00:19:55.240 --> 00:19:58.400
that our analyst
team here in Vancouver,

00:19:58.400 --> 00:20:01.280
which I'm coming at you live and
from Bellingham, Washington.

00:20:01.280 --> 00:20:03.600
You know, we work throughout
North America to identify

00:20:03.600 --> 00:20:06.200
what are some trends within
our school communities

00:20:06.200 --> 00:20:07.400
and districts.

00:20:07.400 --> 00:20:09.320
And we want to share with you
folks some of those trends,

00:20:09.320 --> 00:20:10.720
some of those datas

00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:14.640
and as well some interactive
ways for you folks

00:20:14.640 --> 00:20:17.520
to go back to your departments,
your districts

00:20:17.520 --> 00:20:20.240
and utilize some of these tools

00:20:20.240 --> 00:20:22.440
that we're going to provide
with you to kind of identify,

00:20:22.440 --> 00:20:23.840
get ahead of what
is going on.

00:20:23.840 --> 00:20:26.000
So we're going to jump
right into it here.

00:20:26.000 --> 00:20:28.520
Now I said I'm coming at you
live from beautiful Vancouver,

00:20:28.520 --> 00:20:31.280
British Columbia where it is
cold, it's zero degrees,

00:20:31.280 --> 00:20:32.560
it's foggy.

00:20:32.560 --> 00:20:33.840
Our weather is just
not that great.

00:20:33.840 --> 00:20:37.520
But we're on the shared
traditional territory of the

00:20:37.520 --> 00:20:41.000
Salish and Semiahmoo peoples,
on whose land we work,

00:20:41.000 --> 00:20:42.560
play and learn.

00:20:42.560 --> 00:20:44.760
And for those of you who
have never heard of

00:20:44.760 --> 00:20:46.040
Safer Schools Together,

00:20:46.040 --> 00:20:47.800
a little bit about
our company here.

00:20:47.800 --> 00:20:49.560
You know, we are
absolutely committed

00:20:49.560 --> 00:20:50.880
to ending school violence.

00:20:50.880 --> 00:20:54.040
And we want to encourage school
districts to create positive,

00:20:54.040 --> 00:20:56.680
safe, and caring
learning environments

00:20:56.680 --> 00:20:59.720
for every single student,
staff and parent.

00:20:59.720 --> 00:21:03.200
So we provide law enforcement
agency, school districts,

00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:05.600
community partners,
comprehensive violence

00:21:05.600 --> 00:21:07.960
prevention and
intervention strategies.

00:21:07.960 --> 00:21:11.360
And what we aim to do is give
teams the tools they need

00:21:11.360 --> 00:21:14.160
to build capacity and
sustainability.

00:21:14.160 --> 00:21:16.400
And part of our other work
involves our highly skilled

00:21:16.400 --> 00:21:18.400
threat analyst team
and trainers,

00:21:18.400 --> 00:21:20.080
which helps school districts

00:21:20.080 --> 00:21:22.760
through various parts
of the world minimize, manage,

00:21:22.760 --> 00:21:26.200
and respond to different types
of threats and violence.

00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:28.800
So of course, we operate under
the foundation of behavioral

00:21:28.800 --> 00:21:31.520
threat assessment and
we want our staff

00:21:31.520 --> 00:21:34.560
to have that behavioral
threat assessment training

00:21:34.560 --> 00:21:35.880
and those threat
assessment teams

00:21:35.880 --> 00:21:38.200
to really help make sure
that they can minimize

00:21:38.200 --> 00:21:40.520
those risks in their schools.

00:21:40.520 --> 00:21:42.800
So a little bit about us and
the services that we provide.

00:21:42.800 --> 00:21:45.800
Obviously, like I said, I'm from
Vancouver, British Columbia

00:21:45.800 --> 00:21:47.360
and we also have an
office in Bellingham,

00:21:47.360 --> 00:21:49.160
Washington where our
threat analyst team

00:21:49.160 --> 00:21:52.280
is working 24 hours a
day, 7 days a week,

00:21:52.280 --> 00:21:55.600
to assist school districts
with any ongoing situations,

00:21:55.600 --> 00:21:57.880
or maybe provide a little
bit of next steps

00:21:57.880 --> 00:21:59.320
and suggestions as they're

00:21:59.320 --> 00:22:01.760
moving along their behavioral
threat assessment.

00:22:01.760 --> 00:22:05.120
And we have 24 X 7 on-call
availability because as we know,

00:22:05.120 --> 00:22:08.360
school safety is not
Monday to Friday, 9 to 5.

00:22:08.360 --> 00:22:10.400
And a little bit about what I'm
going to be going through

00:22:10.400 --> 00:22:11.720
and as well,

00:22:11.720 --> 00:22:13.400
Greg later on tomorrow is
going to be going through

00:22:13.400 --> 00:22:16.120
some of our digital
threat assessment techniques

00:22:16.120 --> 00:22:19.000
are tools and techniques that
we give school districts.

00:22:19.000 --> 00:22:20.520
So very excited for that.

00:22:20.520 --> 00:22:22.480
And then what we're going to
share in just a little bit

00:22:22.480 --> 00:22:26.280
is data that we've seen in three
different capacities of

00:22:26.280 --> 00:22:28.040
our analyst world.

00:22:28.040 --> 00:22:30.440
So when school districts
reach out to us,

00:22:30.440 --> 00:22:32.560
what we identify to
school districts

00:22:32.560 --> 00:22:34.920
through our worrisome
online behavior reports.

00:22:34.920 --> 00:22:37.480
So each school district that
works with us actually receives

00:22:37.480 --> 00:22:41.200
a once a month report of open
source social media content

00:22:41.200 --> 00:22:42.760
where our team
actually looks at

00:22:42.760 --> 00:22:45.800
from the 30,000 foot view
of what's happening.

00:22:45.800 --> 00:22:47.520
What are the trends,
what's going on,

00:22:47.520 --> 00:22:50.200
what are some of the key
pieces of information

00:22:50.200 --> 00:22:51.760
that school districts
need to know.

00:22:51.760 --> 00:22:55.800
So whether we're talking about
guns, gangs, drugs, violence,

00:22:55.800 --> 00:22:57.520
mental health concerns,

00:22:57.520 --> 00:22:59.640
anything under that
umbrella of school safety,

00:22:59.640 --> 00:23:02.760
we aim to give that through
open source social media

00:23:02.760 --> 00:23:04.400
to our school districts.

00:23:04.400 --> 00:23:06.760
And, of course, many
different presentations

00:23:06.760 --> 00:23:08.680
and then PSST World,

00:23:08.680 --> 00:23:12.200
which is our anonymous
reporting tool for students.

00:23:12.200 --> 00:23:14.440
And I'll show you folks a little
bit of what that looks like

00:23:14.440 --> 00:23:15.680
in just a few moments.

00:23:15.680 --> 00:23:17.760
And because today's
going to be a little bit

00:23:17.760 --> 00:23:20.200
interactive throughout
the end of the day,

00:23:20.200 --> 00:23:21.480
or end of the session here,

00:23:21.480 --> 00:23:22.800
we're going to be giving
you guys some tools

00:23:22.800 --> 00:23:25.520
that you folks can use
live as I'm going through.

00:23:25.520 --> 00:23:28.000
So if you want to have, you
know, a browser ready to go,

00:23:28.000 --> 00:23:29.240
feel free to do that.

00:23:29.240 --> 00:23:30.760
And then as well,
all the resources

00:23:30.760 --> 00:23:31.880
that I'm going to be mentioning

00:23:31.880 --> 00:23:34.600
I'm going to put in the chat at
the very end of my session.

00:23:34.600 --> 00:23:36.200
So I'm going to put a
long list of links

00:23:36.200 --> 00:23:37.680
that shows all the
different websites

00:23:37.680 --> 00:23:39.480
and resources that I've
been talking about.

00:23:39.480 --> 00:23:41.160
You folks will have
access to all of that,

00:23:41.160 --> 00:23:43.000
because we operate
under open source,

00:23:43.000 --> 00:23:45.240
everything that we do
is publicly available.

00:23:45.240 --> 00:23:47.920
So some other resources
available as well,

00:23:47.920 --> 00:23:50.400
our new website, ICDTA,
the International Center

00:23:50.400 --> 00:23:51.800
for Digital Threat Assessment.

00:23:51.800 --> 00:23:54.000
I won't go too much into it,
but this is a new website

00:23:54.000 --> 00:23:58.000
that we're launching with
social media modules.

00:23:58.000 --> 00:24:00.920
I kindly ask that there be no
audiovisual recording of

00:24:00.920 --> 00:24:02.000
what we have on the screen.

00:24:02.000 --> 00:24:04.120
Of course, we're reporting
today, that's totally fine,

00:24:04.120 --> 00:24:06.920
but just for everybody's sake
of privacy and safety.

00:24:06.920 --> 00:24:09.640
So I mentioned that I wanted
to go through the data.

00:24:09.640 --> 00:24:12.480
So as I mentioned, our
analyst team operates

00:24:12.480 --> 00:24:14.000
in three different capacities.

00:24:14.000 --> 00:24:16.960
So the first capacity is
our case consultations

00:24:16.960 --> 00:24:18.080
or our critical incidents.

00:24:18.080 --> 00:24:19.600
And this is what happens
when school districts

00:24:19.600 --> 00:24:20.920
reach out to us.

00:24:20.920 --> 00:24:22.960
So we have this in multiple
different types of

00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:24.440
behavior categories.

00:24:24.440 --> 00:24:26.320
And one of the things that's
happened with the pandemic,

00:24:26.320 --> 00:24:29.400
obviously with all of our
students, all of our staff

00:24:29.400 --> 00:24:32.000
having to go to that remote
learning environment.

00:24:32.000 --> 00:24:33.440
As mentioned at the beginning,

00:24:33.440 --> 00:24:35.520
you know, we've seen
a large increase

00:24:35.520 --> 00:24:38.080
in threat related
behavior online,

00:24:38.080 --> 00:24:39.640
hate and racism online

00:24:39.640 --> 00:24:42.320
because so much of our
time was dedicated

00:24:42.320 --> 00:24:44.040
to being behind screens.

00:24:44.040 --> 00:24:46.880
So what I want to share with you
is this three key data points of

00:24:46.880 --> 00:24:48.320
some of those
worrisome behaviors

00:24:48.320 --> 00:24:49.840
that we've seen online.

00:24:49.840 --> 00:24:51.400
So we've actually
broken down into

00:24:51.400 --> 00:24:53.520
three different time periods.

00:24:53.520 --> 00:24:56.160
So the first iteration
of the pandemic,

00:24:56.160 --> 00:25:00.520
so when we look at March 1st,
2019 to February 29, 2020,

00:25:00.520 --> 00:25:01.880
about a ten month period.

00:25:01.880 --> 00:25:03.600
You see this data in blue here.

00:25:03.600 --> 00:25:07.800
We start to notice, when we
break down the baseline data

00:25:07.800 --> 00:25:09.560
that we've seen for
our school districts,

00:25:09.560 --> 00:25:10.600
the many school districts

00:25:10.600 --> 00:25:12.520
that we work with
throughout North America.

00:25:12.520 --> 00:25:17.520
But the second data point is our
first iteration of the pandemic.

00:25:17.520 --> 00:25:21.160
So right at March, 2020
when we first started

00:25:21.160 --> 00:25:23.880
to lock everything down, for
about a ten month period.

00:25:23.880 --> 00:25:25.400
So you'll see our data in orange

00:25:25.400 --> 00:25:28.720
and you'll notice that our
negative digital climate

00:25:28.720 --> 00:25:30.480
and culture really
skyrocketed.

00:25:30.480 --> 00:25:33.200
We started to see an increase
in threat related behavior

00:25:33.200 --> 00:25:35.000
and we also started to
see other things,

00:25:35.000 --> 00:25:37.000
like risk of sextortion
because again,

00:25:37.000 --> 00:25:39.200
a lot of our time
is spent online.

00:25:39.200 --> 00:25:41.920
So when we have, when we talk
about digital literacy,

00:25:41.920 --> 00:25:43.800
you know, part of what we
present to is parents

00:25:43.800 --> 00:25:46.000
and understanding that we need

00:25:46.000 --> 00:25:48.400
to be good role models
with our phones as well.

00:25:48.400 --> 00:25:51.200
Some key things that your
families can take home,

00:25:51.200 --> 00:25:53.800
some central charging stations
and some other really great

00:25:53.800 --> 00:25:56.720
techniques to keep
our kids safe online.

00:25:56.720 --> 00:25:58.120
So we did end up seeing,

00:25:58.120 --> 00:25:59.800
you know, an increase in
some of those behaviors.

00:25:59.800 --> 00:26:03.000
But when we go down into the
most recent iteration,

00:26:03.000 --> 00:26:07.520
of course, of March, 2021 to
November 30th of 2021,

00:26:07.520 --> 00:26:10.440
our threat related behavior has
absolutely skyrocketed

00:26:10.440 --> 00:26:13.200
and so has our bullying
and cyberbullying.

00:26:13.200 --> 00:26:15.680
So these are what our
schools are noticing,

00:26:15.680 --> 00:26:17.840
and this is what they're
reaching out to us

00:26:17.840 --> 00:26:19.680
with those types of behaviors.

00:26:19.680 --> 00:26:23.320
So the second iteration of where
our analyst team operates,

00:26:23.320 --> 00:26:24.440
as I mentioned before,

00:26:24.440 --> 00:26:26.600
was our worrisome online
behavior reports.

00:26:26.600 --> 00:26:28.600
So this is what our team
actually sends

00:26:28.600 --> 00:26:29.800
to school districts.

00:26:29.800 --> 00:26:32.440
And we found this to be a very,
very valuable tool

00:26:32.440 --> 00:26:33.600
for the sole reason

00:26:33.600 --> 00:26:36.080
is that because it
operates through publicly

00:26:36.080 --> 00:26:38.120
available open
source social media,

00:26:38.120 --> 00:26:39.280
there's some things
that our team

00:26:39.280 --> 00:26:41.640
are able to gather that
maybe some of these other

00:26:41.640 --> 00:26:43.000
key word monitoring softwares

00:26:43.000 --> 00:26:46.040
and some of these
specific searching

00:26:46.040 --> 00:26:49.240
and filters and monitors
that for schools,

00:26:49.240 --> 00:26:50.960
they tend to miss.

00:26:50.960 --> 00:26:53.000
And I'm not saying that
those are bad softwares.

00:26:53.000 --> 00:26:55.200
They have their
place, absolutely.

00:26:55.200 --> 00:26:58.200
But some of them don't capture,
they don't have the technology

00:26:58.200 --> 00:26:59.920
to capture what's
happening on TikTok,

00:26:59.920 --> 00:27:04.400
what's going on in non-GO
tag posts on social media.

00:27:04.400 --> 00:27:07.000
So some of these things that
our team is able to identify.

00:27:07.000 --> 00:27:10.400
The most glaring and obvious one
that we've been able to identify

00:27:10.400 --> 00:27:13.120
for staff is mental
health concerns.

00:27:13.120 --> 00:27:16.560
So when, of course, we look at
the impact of what the pandemic

00:27:16.560 --> 00:27:19.600
had throughout everybody's
mental health,

00:27:19.600 --> 00:27:21.200
it's no surprise that

00:27:21.200 --> 00:27:23.600
the data that we have
absolutely showcases that,

00:27:23.600 --> 00:27:26.400
especially during that first
iteration of the pandemic

00:27:26.400 --> 00:27:28.680
when we were in such a
state of the unknown.

00:27:28.680 --> 00:27:31.400
This is what a lot of our
students and our youth

00:27:31.400 --> 00:27:34.200
were showing what they
were feeling online.

00:27:34.200 --> 00:27:36.600
And this is a great help for
school districts because

00:27:36.600 --> 00:27:38.280
some of the feedback that we get

00:27:38.280 --> 00:27:40.480
when we send this
information over to them

00:27:40.480 --> 00:27:43.240
is that not a lot of these
students were on the radar.

00:27:43.240 --> 00:27:45.800
They had no idea the types
of concerning posts

00:27:45.800 --> 00:27:47.080
that they had online,

00:27:47.080 --> 00:27:49.400
or maybe that they were
on their radar previously,

00:27:49.400 --> 00:27:51.720
but not for these
types of concerns.

00:27:51.720 --> 00:27:54.960
So this is the second
capacity in which we operate.

00:27:54.960 --> 00:27:58.600
And then the third is the data
gathered from our reported tips.

00:27:58.600 --> 00:28:02.400
So like PSST World, the erase
reporter tool is actually a tool

00:28:02.400 --> 00:28:06.440
that's strictly for here in the
province of British Columbia.

00:28:06.440 --> 00:28:08.400
So you know, when we go
talk to some of these

00:28:08.400 --> 00:28:09.560
other different districts

00:28:09.560 --> 00:28:10.800
and areas, they always ask,

00:28:10.800 --> 00:28:12.280
you know, we have
it so together,

00:28:12.280 --> 00:28:15.000
how is, how is it so
easy for all of our teams

00:28:15.000 --> 00:28:16.240
to collaborate

00:28:16.240 --> 00:28:18.600
and all of our multidisciplinary
teams to come together?

00:28:18.600 --> 00:28:20.800
Well, it's because we
have our work done

00:28:20.800 --> 00:28:21.800
through our government.

00:28:21.800 --> 00:28:24.200
Our government is absolutely
onboard with all of this.

00:28:24.200 --> 00:28:26.680
So ERASE in our territory
stands for Expect,

00:28:26.680 --> 00:28:28.880
Respect and a Safe Education.

00:28:28.880 --> 00:28:31.320
So part of that is giving
students the knowledge

00:28:31.320 --> 00:28:34.040
and the power to report
worrisome behavior

00:28:34.040 --> 00:28:35.760
that they see either online,

00:28:35.760 --> 00:28:39.000
in the schools, or
wherever it is that affects

00:28:39.000 --> 00:28:42.000
their culture, climate and
safety and they have the ability

00:28:42.000 --> 00:28:44.960
to do this 24 hours
a day, 7 days a week.

00:28:44.960 --> 00:28:47.400
So the most glaring
one that we've seen,

00:28:47.400 --> 00:28:48.800
that students have seen,

00:28:48.800 --> 00:28:51.760
have been reporting is
bullying and cyberbullying.

00:28:51.760 --> 00:28:55.360
So bullying and cyberbullying is
what our students are seeing.

00:28:55.360 --> 00:28:57.560
So when we look at these three
different data points,

00:28:57.560 --> 00:28:59.760
we look at what
staff are noticing,

00:28:59.760 --> 00:29:03.000
what we're noticing and what
students are noticing.

00:29:03.000 --> 00:29:05.120
So you'll notice
that there's three

00:29:05.120 --> 00:29:06.400
different types of categories.

00:29:06.400 --> 00:29:09.360
Their biggest concerns right
now are mental health concerns,

00:29:09.360 --> 00:29:12.200
threat related behavior, and
bullying or cyberbullying.

00:29:12.200 --> 00:29:15.040
So the question is, what can
we do to combat these effects?

00:29:15.040 --> 00:29:17.280
What can we do to combat
these in our schools?

00:29:17.280 --> 00:29:20.560
Of course, education and having
community come together

00:29:20.560 --> 00:29:23.320
and having these presentations
to staff, to students,

00:29:23.320 --> 00:29:25.480
to parents is so, so important,

00:29:25.480 --> 00:29:27.560
but what can we as a
system do together

00:29:27.560 --> 00:29:29.160
to find out what's going on?

00:29:29.160 --> 00:29:32.000
So I just wanted to share some
examples of some of these

00:29:32.000 --> 00:29:33.800
reported tips that we've seen.

00:29:33.800 --> 00:29:36.200
Because what makes these
really effective is what,

00:29:36.200 --> 00:29:39.400
getting our students onboard
with this information,

00:29:39.400 --> 00:29:41.280
showing them that they
can have a voice,

00:29:41.280 --> 00:29:43.200
they can report
the behavior.

00:29:43.200 --> 00:29:44.800
Not to get their
friends into trouble,

00:29:44.800 --> 00:29:47.120
but to get their friends
out of trouble.

00:29:47.120 --> 00:29:48.880
So when we look at some
of the reports like this,

00:29:48.880 --> 00:29:50.720
you know, we've seen somebody

00:29:50.720 --> 00:29:53.800
share that they are making
more and more suicide jokes,

00:29:53.800 --> 00:29:56.160
they are giving
their belongings away,

00:29:56.160 --> 00:29:57.600
they're engaging in behaviors

00:29:57.600 --> 00:29:59.920
that would be consistent
with what they've made.

00:29:59.920 --> 00:30:03.840
And again, students have the
ability to remain anonymous

00:30:03.840 --> 00:30:06.200
when they bring this
information forward.

00:30:06.200 --> 00:30:09.400
We've got shooting threats that
we receive almost on a monthly

00:30:09.400 --> 00:30:12.600
basis from school districts,
especially here in Canada.

00:30:12.600 --> 00:30:14.600
Yes, in Canada we do
have gun violence.

00:30:14.600 --> 00:30:16.960
We do have threats
of violence here.

00:30:16.960 --> 00:30:20.000
So it's really great to see that
students are reporting

00:30:20.000 --> 00:30:22.800
this behavior and students
are getting the help

00:30:22.800 --> 00:30:26.800
and the education and the right
discipline that they need.

00:30:26.800 --> 00:30:29.000
So just another
couple categories.

00:30:29.000 --> 00:30:32.160
Mental health concerns that
we've seen, bullying

00:30:32.160 --> 00:30:34.400
and cyberbullying and all
this is available

00:30:34.400 --> 00:30:38.440
through the availability
for students to report.

00:30:38.440 --> 00:30:40.800
So I'll put a link to PTSST
World in the chat

00:30:40.800 --> 00:30:42.200
if you are interested.

00:30:42.200 --> 00:30:44.600
I'm not saying you have
to use our reporting tool.

00:30:44.600 --> 00:30:47.960
If you don't have one, I
definitely would consider

00:30:47.960 --> 00:30:50.200
figuring out which reporting
tool works best

00:30:50.200 --> 00:30:51.520
for your students.

00:30:51.520 --> 00:30:52.920
And it doesn't matter
what tool it is.

00:30:52.920 --> 00:30:56.000
You know, my boss isn't on here,
so she won't, it doesn't matter.

00:30:56.000 --> 00:30:57.600
You don't have to use our tool.

00:30:57.600 --> 00:30:59.640
But as long as that
communication is that

00:30:59.640 --> 00:31:00.840
they can see something

00:31:00.840 --> 00:31:02.680
and say something,
but more importantly,

00:31:02.680 --> 00:31:05.360
is that we are going to do
something about these reports.

00:31:05.360 --> 00:31:08.520
So these are just some examples
of what students can report,

00:31:08.520 --> 00:31:12.760
how they see this information,
and what they can do.

00:31:12.760 --> 00:31:15.680
All right, so I'm going to turn
this over now to talk a little

00:31:15.680 --> 00:31:19.080
bit more about the actual
trends that we are seeing,

00:31:19.080 --> 00:31:21.840
what we are seeing here within
Safer Schools Together.

00:31:21.840 --> 00:31:26.440
So we're going to take it back
all the way to the pound sign,

00:31:26.440 --> 00:31:30.320
or more colloquially
known as the hashtag.

00:31:30.320 --> 00:31:33.000
So we know the hashtag is
such an important tool

00:31:33.000 --> 00:31:35.240
for helping
individuals find posts

00:31:35.240 --> 00:31:37.960
that have been
categorized by keywords.

00:31:37.960 --> 00:31:41.240
So people use hashtags hoping
that others will find them

00:31:41.240 --> 00:31:43.880
based on those
self-described categories.

00:31:43.880 --> 00:31:47.080
So they make content more
discoverable within platforms

00:31:47.080 --> 00:31:48.600
in their search tools.

00:31:48.600 --> 00:31:52.200
They help users reach more
and they make it easier

00:31:52.200 --> 00:31:56.720
for people to find, follow and
contribute to conversations.

00:31:56.720 --> 00:31:59.800
So whenever a user adds a
hashtag to their post,

00:31:59.800 --> 00:32:01.680
whether it be on Twitter,

00:32:01.680 --> 00:32:05.000
on Instagram, on
TikTok, on Facebook,

00:32:05.000 --> 00:32:07.680
that social media network
indexes that post

00:32:07.680 --> 00:32:09.440
and boosts its searchabilty

00:32:09.440 --> 00:32:12.080
and discoverability
with other users.

00:32:12.080 --> 00:32:15.880
So consider students
who tag their schools.

00:32:15.880 --> 00:32:17.320
What is their tag?

00:32:17.320 --> 00:32:20.200
Will it help you find content
associated with that school

00:32:20.200 --> 00:32:22.000
and that student user group?

00:32:22.000 --> 00:32:23.800
Well, absolutely it's going to.

00:32:23.800 --> 00:32:26.200
So that's why it's really
important to pay attention

00:32:26.200 --> 00:32:27.400
to some of the hashtags

00:32:27.400 --> 00:32:29.720
that are coming around in
our different areas,

00:32:29.720 --> 00:32:32.440
what those look like and
how we can search for them.

00:32:32.440 --> 00:32:35.960
So I wanted to share some of
the concerning hashtags

00:32:35.960 --> 00:32:37.200
that we've started to see

00:32:37.200 --> 00:32:39.560
and where it's
kind of evolved because

00:32:39.560 --> 00:32:41.880
the language is really,
really changing.

00:32:41.880 --> 00:32:45.400
So when we look at some of these
self-harm related images,

00:32:45.400 --> 00:32:47.080
you know, very
concerning to see,

00:32:47.080 --> 00:32:50.000
but it's also attributed with
a concerning caption,

00:32:50.000 --> 00:32:54.480
a concerning post that has
lots of different hashtags.

00:32:54.480 --> 00:32:56.600
So when we look at these
hashtags, you know,

00:32:56.600 --> 00:32:59.000
our biggest concern for the
student is risk to self.

00:32:59.000 --> 00:33:01.240
You know, what other
things are they posting,

00:33:01.240 --> 00:33:03.080
what are they filling
themselves up with.

00:33:03.080 --> 00:33:05.040
Of course, we want to get
them the help that they need.

00:33:05.040 --> 00:33:07.000
But when we look at the
specific hashtags,

00:33:07.000 --> 00:33:09.000
when we see that says
don't worry guys,

00:33:09.000 --> 00:33:12.200
Sally, I'm still here, I was
just grounded for a long time,

00:33:12.200 --> 00:33:16.520
#sad, suicide, suicidal,
depressed, depression, ugly.

00:33:16.520 --> 00:33:19.440
And we go down a little bit
further, we see #stopped eating,

00:33:19.440 --> 00:33:24.080
#ana, mia, deb, sue, cut,
cutting, lost, unfixable, alone,

00:33:24.080 --> 00:33:26.160
unloved, secret society 123.

00:33:26.160 --> 00:33:31.040
So I have the chat section
here on my TV screen here,

00:33:31.040 --> 00:33:33.000
so I'm going to ask the
question to you folks,

00:33:33.000 --> 00:33:34.320
what are some of these hashtags

00:33:34.320 --> 00:33:36.320
that you're noticing
that you want to find a little

00:33:36.320 --> 00:33:39.280
bit more information about or
what are some questions you have

00:33:39.280 --> 00:33:40.920
regarding some of
these hashtags?

00:33:40.920 --> 00:33:42.280
And please feel free
to use the chat

00:33:42.280 --> 00:33:45.280
so we can see some
of your hypotheses.

00:33:45.280 --> 00:33:48.640
Go full screen here and
make it easier to read.

00:33:48.640 --> 00:33:51.840
So we see #depression,
absolutely.

00:33:51.840 --> 00:33:53.200
We're seeing threats.

00:33:53.200 --> 00:33:54.800
Secret society 123.

00:33:54.800 --> 00:33:59.200
What is the secret society 123?

00:34:02.720 --> 00:34:03.920
Eating disorder.

00:34:06.840 --> 00:34:08.840
Interesting,
interesting hypothesis.

00:34:08.840 --> 00:34:10.160
Eating disorder.

00:34:10.160 --> 00:34:12.600
Ana, who is Ana?

00:34:12.600 --> 00:34:14.760
Who's Mia, who's Deb, who's Sue?

00:34:14.760 --> 00:34:15.880
Are they names?

00:34:15.880 --> 00:34:17.640
Yeah, are they peers, or
are they other individuals

00:34:17.640 --> 00:34:20.480
contributing to the self-harm?

00:34:20.480 --> 00:34:23.760
These are all different
hypothesis that our teams have

00:34:23.760 --> 00:34:24.800
and, more importantly,

00:34:24.800 --> 00:34:27.280
our multidisciplinary
teams can have.

00:34:27.280 --> 00:34:29.680
But yeah, Jenny, you got
it, absolutely right.

00:34:29.680 --> 00:34:32.640
When we look at these hashtags
that are being used,

00:34:32.640 --> 00:34:36.200
we found that this is not just
names of other individuals,

00:34:36.200 --> 00:34:39.720
but the language of
self-harm on social media.

00:34:39.720 --> 00:34:45.000
So when we look at #Ana, #Mia,
Deb, Sue, Secret Society 123,

00:34:45.000 --> 00:34:49.000
this is the language of
self-harm on Instagram.

00:34:49.000 --> 00:34:51.080
This is what it means.

00:34:51.080 --> 00:34:55.760
So those associated tags with
the larger family of tags

00:34:55.760 --> 00:34:59.360
highlight various disorders
and each of those disorders

00:34:59.360 --> 00:35:02.440
has a masculine and a
feminine variety.

00:35:02.440 --> 00:35:05.560
So paying attention to these
hashtags is essential.

00:35:05.560 --> 00:35:08.920
So the my Secret Family,
the Secret Society 123,

00:35:08.920 --> 00:35:12.160
you know, we started to see
this evolve on Instagram.

00:35:12.160 --> 00:35:14.240
So whenever we see
these hashtags,

00:35:14.240 --> 00:35:16.560
you know, maybe I'm
feeling #Ana today

00:35:16.560 --> 00:35:21.000
or I'm feeling #Mia today,
we know what they are,

00:35:21.000 --> 00:35:22.400
what they are
self-ascribing

00:35:22.400 --> 00:35:26.320
and their afflictions that
they are showcasing online.

00:35:26.320 --> 00:35:28.920
Now the good news is, if we go
back to this previous post,

00:35:28.920 --> 00:35:30.440
you'll see that this
journal article,

00:35:30.440 --> 00:35:31.920
the Journal of
Adolescent Health,

00:35:31.920 --> 00:35:34.800
this was posted in 2015.

00:35:34.800 --> 00:35:37.640
In the internet times, that is
ancient, believe it or not.

00:35:37.640 --> 00:35:41.560
2015 in the internet
times was a long time ago.

00:35:41.560 --> 00:35:43.120
So the good news,
because of this,

00:35:43.120 --> 00:35:45.760
is that Instagram has caught
up with these hashtags.

00:35:45.760 --> 00:35:48.680
Instagram knows about
Secret Society 123,

00:35:48.680 --> 00:35:50.760
they know about #Ana and Mia.

00:35:50.760 --> 00:35:53.400
So what happens when users
start to put those hashtags

00:35:53.400 --> 00:35:56.320
on their post, is that they'll
find something like this.

00:35:56.320 --> 00:35:58.160
When you click or
when you search for

00:35:58.160 --> 00:36:01.120
some of these hashtags,
Secret Society 123.

00:36:01.120 --> 00:36:05.200
Instagram knows about it and it
says post with these words

00:36:05.200 --> 00:36:07.960
often encourage other
behaviors that can cause harm

00:36:07.960 --> 00:36:09.160
and even lead to death.

00:36:09.160 --> 00:36:13.200
So they lead with support, they
lead to kids' help phones

00:36:13.200 --> 00:36:17.560
or wherever state specific
resources for students.

00:36:17.560 --> 00:36:20.400
But then you still have the
availability to show these posts

00:36:20.400 --> 00:36:22.240
and use these posts.

00:36:22.240 --> 00:36:23.400
So even if it saves one life,

00:36:23.400 --> 00:36:25.440
I'm totally fine with
it being there.

00:36:25.440 --> 00:36:27.920
So Instagram has caught up.

00:36:27.920 --> 00:36:31.040
Other social media
platforms, not so much.

00:36:31.040 --> 00:36:36.320
So we actually don't see these
hashtags being used on Instagram

00:36:36.320 --> 00:36:40.240
anymore because of Instagram
putting those safeguards

00:36:40.240 --> 00:36:42.400
and those filters
on these posts.

00:36:42.400 --> 00:36:46.320
Where we do start to see this,
though, is actually on Twitter.

00:36:46.320 --> 00:36:48.600
So I'm going to be showing some
posts and some captions

00:36:48.600 --> 00:36:52.320
related to eating disorders
just so you folks know.

00:36:52.320 --> 00:36:54.800
But we start to see this shift.

00:36:54.800 --> 00:36:57.000
So when one social media
kind of dies down,

00:36:57.000 --> 00:36:59.320
our youth tend to
shift over to others.

00:36:59.320 --> 00:37:01.840
They still share those same
thoughts, those feelings

00:37:01.840 --> 00:37:05.240
and behaviors, but on other
sides of different platforms.

00:37:05.240 --> 00:37:08.200
So while we didn't see this
post on Instagram,

00:37:08.200 --> 00:37:12.200
we started to see an increase
in eating disorder Twitter,

00:37:12.200 --> 00:37:16.160
which is #EDTW,
but utilizing that

00:37:16.160 --> 00:37:20.160
same hashtags of #Ana, #Mia,

00:37:20.160 --> 00:37:22.960
hashtag whatever it is.

00:37:22.960 --> 00:37:27.800
EDNOS is eating disorder
not otherwise specified.

00:37:27.800 --> 00:37:29.960
So when we look at
utilizing some of these

00:37:29.960 --> 00:37:31.320
hashtags within Twitter,

00:37:31.320 --> 00:37:34.200
you can see that we are
already into a rabbit hole.

00:37:34.200 --> 00:37:36.640
And this, all these screenshots,
by the way, were captured

00:37:36.640 --> 00:37:40.800
within the first two weeks
of January of this year.

00:37:40.800 --> 00:37:43.240
So these are very recent,
these are very new.

00:37:43.240 --> 00:37:45.480
But they are still using
those same hashtags

00:37:45.480 --> 00:37:47.880
all the way from 2015.

00:37:47.880 --> 00:37:50.480
So when we see things like
finsbo being utilized

00:37:50.480 --> 00:37:58.200
and a diet and again, EDTW,
Eating Disorder Twitter.

00:37:58.200 --> 00:37:59.720
So Twitter is
usually broken down

00:37:59.720 --> 00:38:01.320
into other different categories.

00:38:01.320 --> 00:38:04.520
You know, why am I using Twitter
for this specific reason?

00:38:04.520 --> 00:38:08.000
Well, it's because I'm going to
interact in other echo chambers

00:38:08.000 --> 00:38:12.520
with others who are
suffering the same disorders

00:38:12.520 --> 00:38:15.400
and they are encouraging these
other disorders as well.

00:38:15.400 --> 00:38:17.440
You can see this one that
says eat your weight.

00:38:17.440 --> 00:38:19.440
So day one, eat the same
amount of calories

00:38:19.440 --> 00:38:21.920
as what you weigh in pounds,

00:38:21.920 --> 00:38:23.640
which for anybody is
not going to be

00:38:23.640 --> 00:38:26.720
a sustainable amount
of calories per day,

00:38:26.720 --> 00:38:28.640
but we're seeing
others encouraging

00:38:28.640 --> 00:38:31.560
those behaviors online.

00:38:31.560 --> 00:38:34.480
One of the other things that
we've started to see is that

00:38:34.480 --> 00:38:36.040
they're necessarily
isn't a causation,

00:38:36.040 --> 00:38:37.720
but one of the things
that we've noticed

00:38:37.720 --> 00:38:41.640
is that those who actually
are engaging in behaviors

00:38:41.640 --> 00:38:46.080
such as this online
share thinspo posts,

00:38:46.080 --> 00:38:48.480
which is what they refer
to as thinspiration,

00:38:48.480 --> 00:38:50.040
so inspiration of people

00:38:50.040 --> 00:38:52.400
who are extremely
thin and underweight.

00:38:52.400 --> 00:38:56.040
Where we start to see a lot
of increase in post usage

00:38:56.040 --> 00:39:00.040
is actually related to K-Pop.

00:39:00.040 --> 00:39:02.520
I will fully admit,
I am not a K-Pop fan.

00:39:02.520 --> 00:39:06.200
It's not the life, it's not the
type of music that I listen to.

00:39:06.200 --> 00:39:09.200
However, we start to see
those who are inspired

00:39:09.200 --> 00:39:12.360
by the girls who are part of it,

00:39:12.360 --> 00:39:15.400
black pink is the largest
one that we've seen.

00:39:15.400 --> 00:39:20.080
Utilizing them as thinspo
so I can lose my appetite.

00:39:20.080 --> 00:39:23.520
But it's even been discussed in
other forums, such as Reddit,

00:39:23.520 --> 00:39:26.080
where they're talking
about how negative it is

00:39:26.080 --> 00:39:28.840
and how it is ruining some
of these conversations

00:39:28.840 --> 00:39:30.760
that are happening about K-Pop

00:39:30.760 --> 00:39:33.200
because the other
individuals who are suffering

00:39:33.200 --> 00:39:36.120
with eating disorders are
posting a lot about them.

00:39:36.120 --> 00:39:39.520
So it is a concerning trend that
we are seeing for those

00:39:39.520 --> 00:39:43.000
who maybe are, make their
life about K-Pop.

00:39:43.000 --> 00:39:44.200
These are some of
the other trends

00:39:44.200 --> 00:39:45.400
that we are seeing with that.

00:39:45.400 --> 00:39:50.080
So the language of self-harm
changes based on

00:39:50.080 --> 00:39:52.560
the social media platform
that we utilize.

00:39:52.560 --> 00:39:54.000
So again, on Instagram,

00:39:54.000 --> 00:39:56.360
this is kind of where we
saw it start to shift

00:39:56.360 --> 00:39:59.280
and then Twitter is where
we're continuing to see

00:39:59.280 --> 00:40:00.760
the same hashtags.

00:40:00.760 --> 00:40:02.840
But TikTok is a whole
other different beast.

00:40:02.840 --> 00:40:05.360
And for those of you who have a
TikTok account of your own,

00:40:05.360 --> 00:40:07.400
you know exactly what
I'm talking about.

00:40:07.400 --> 00:40:09.400
That algorithm really
sucks you in

00:40:09.400 --> 00:40:11.800
and gives you way
too much content.

00:40:11.800 --> 00:40:15.080
And it can expose our youth to
way too much information

00:40:15.080 --> 00:40:17.200
that they may or may
not needed to know.

00:40:17.200 --> 00:40:18.960
So how do we start to
know what's going,

00:40:18.960 --> 00:40:20.360
what's popular around TikTok?

00:40:20.360 --> 00:40:24.880
Well, just by simply going to
TikTok.com/discover,

00:40:24.880 --> 00:40:26.000
I'll put a link to
that in the chat

00:40:26.000 --> 00:40:27.000
at the end of the session,

00:40:27.000 --> 00:40:28.120
but this is just for you

00:40:28.120 --> 00:40:30.320
if you don't have an account
to see what's popular.

00:40:30.320 --> 00:40:32.960
What are some of the current
things that are going on?

00:40:32.960 --> 00:40:35.880
But just know that this is a
very, very, I would take this

00:40:35.880 --> 00:40:37.840
with a grain of salt because
a lot of these videos

00:40:37.840 --> 00:40:40.320
do have a lot of views
and a lot of content,

00:40:40.320 --> 00:40:43.160
but that is what TikTok
wants to promote.

00:40:43.160 --> 00:40:46.000
TikTok does not want
to promote those

00:40:46.000 --> 00:40:47.960
who are struggling with
mental health issues

00:40:47.960 --> 00:40:50.640
or eating disorders because
TikTok's algorithm

00:40:50.640 --> 00:40:52.080
is probably one of
the most strictest

00:40:52.080 --> 00:40:54.760
that we've seen in any
social media platform.

00:40:54.760 --> 00:41:01.280
So if you use #depression, #Ana,
#Mia or Secret Society 123,

00:41:01.280 --> 00:41:04.200
TikTok already knows
about all these hashtags.

00:41:04.200 --> 00:41:07.400
And what it does is it
suppresses your video.

00:41:07.400 --> 00:41:10.240
So your video can't be shared,
it can't be liked,

00:41:10.240 --> 00:41:11.800
it can't be commented on.

00:41:11.800 --> 00:41:14.840
If you post too much with those
things that violate their terms

00:41:14.840 --> 00:41:17.120
and conditions or the
community guidelines,

00:41:17.120 --> 00:41:19.400
your account could
be terminated.

00:41:19.400 --> 00:41:22.600
But because our youth
are smart and resilient,

00:41:22.600 --> 00:41:23.680
they're changing

00:41:23.680 --> 00:41:26.880
the language of self-harm
on the specific platform.

00:41:26.880 --> 00:41:30.000
So not only are they not using
these hashtags at all,

00:41:30.000 --> 00:41:31.320
they are completely changing

00:41:31.320 --> 00:41:33.640
how they are communicating
through TikTok.

00:41:33.640 --> 00:41:35.000
So instead of suicide,

00:41:35.000 --> 00:41:38.240
they're going to use the
word unalive or sewerslide.

00:41:38.240 --> 00:41:39.440
They're going to
change the spelling.

00:41:39.440 --> 00:41:43.040
Instead of utilizing, you
know, spelling weed,

00:41:43.040 --> 00:41:45.960
they're going to substitute
letters with numbers.

00:41:45.960 --> 00:41:49.840
And instead of describing how
they're going to participate

00:41:49.840 --> 00:41:51.200
or what they're going to do,

00:41:51.200 --> 00:41:54.400
they're going to utilize
emoji's to communicate

00:41:54.400 --> 00:41:56.160
those different
things that they're doing

00:41:56.160 --> 00:41:57.440
or that they're engaging with.

00:41:59.760 --> 00:42:01.080
So of course, like I mentioned,

00:42:01.080 --> 00:42:04.560
TikTok obviously
isn't going to stop

00:42:04.560 --> 00:42:07.840
and disrupt any sort
of mental health concerns.

00:42:07.840 --> 00:42:10.600
Of course, they're going to
promote #mentalhealthmatters.

00:42:10.600 --> 00:42:12.800
But if we look at some of
the other hashtags

00:42:12.800 --> 00:42:14.000
that are being used,

00:42:14.000 --> 00:42:18.560
if we still use different
spellings of those negative,

00:42:18.560 --> 00:42:21.480
negatively used hashtags,
they're still going to show up.

00:42:21.480 --> 00:42:26.200
So youth are actually purposely
misspelling some of these

00:42:26.200 --> 00:42:28.800
disorders that they may
be dealing with

00:42:28.800 --> 00:42:31.360
so that way the algorithm
doesn't see that video

00:42:31.360 --> 00:42:34.400
and it still shares it
with other individuals.

00:42:34.400 --> 00:42:36.680
So just know that we're
changing the language

00:42:36.680 --> 00:42:39.200
at self-harm at TikTok.

00:42:39.200 --> 00:42:43.200
So you can see TW on this one
here stands for trigger warning

00:42:43.200 --> 00:42:45.360
when we look at unalive.

00:42:45.360 --> 00:42:49.000
So they're going to purposely
misspell unalive,

00:42:49.000 --> 00:42:52.200
self-harm and depression.

00:42:52.200 --> 00:42:55.800
And again, unalive
myself and then -

00:42:55.800 --> 00:42:59.720
so a lot of changes in how
that language is being used.

00:42:59.720 --> 00:43:02.840
When we look at different
ones related to different,

00:43:02.840 --> 00:43:04.480
other afflictions
like handprints.

00:43:04.480 --> 00:43:08.880
This is where #handprints where
other individuals will put paint

00:43:08.880 --> 00:43:11.200
on their hands and then on
their body to symbolize

00:43:11.200 --> 00:43:14.600
where they have been sexually
abused in the past.

00:43:14.600 --> 00:43:21.360
And we also have #shampoo and
#conditioner and #Iatepasta.

00:43:21.360 --> 00:43:23.120
How is that related
to self-harm?

00:43:23.120 --> 00:43:24.400
Well, believe it or not, it is.

00:43:24.400 --> 00:43:29.000
So this actually stems from a
poem, a poem, the artist is

00:43:29.000 --> 00:43:30.320
named Hannah Danes.

00:43:30.320 --> 00:43:32.840
And the poem is called
Don't Kill Yourself Today.

00:43:32.840 --> 00:43:36.680
So part of that poem is saying
don't kill yourself

00:43:36.680 --> 00:43:38.160
until you finish your shampoo

00:43:38.160 --> 00:43:39.400
and conditioner at
the same time,

00:43:39.400 --> 00:43:44.280
or don't kill yourself until all
the pasta in your shelf is gone.

00:43:44.280 --> 00:43:45.920
Typically things
that take others

00:43:45.920 --> 00:43:48.400
a very long time to
do or complete.

00:43:48.400 --> 00:43:49.960
That is the goal behind that.

00:43:49.960 --> 00:43:51.400
But, of course, our
youth take that

00:43:51.400 --> 00:43:53.120
and they decide to make
jokes about that saying

00:43:53.120 --> 00:43:55.880
that my shampoo is gone
or I've eaten all my pasta,

00:43:55.880 --> 00:43:58.040
so now I'm going to
complete suicide

00:43:58.040 --> 00:44:01.360
or now I'm moving further down
that pathway along self-harm.

00:44:01.360 --> 00:44:04.120
So just know that some of these
indicators that are out there.

00:44:04.120 --> 00:44:05.760
As well as, like I mentioned,

00:44:05.760 --> 00:44:08.320
emoji's being utilized
to describe,

00:44:08.320 --> 00:44:09.840
you know, when
things are happening

00:44:09.840 --> 00:44:11.680
or when they've done
certain things.

00:44:11.680 --> 00:44:14.280
So, you know, I'll leave it
up to you folks to decide

00:44:14.280 --> 00:44:17.600
and hypothesize as to what
each of these emoji's mean.

00:44:17.600 --> 00:44:20.040
But just know that it's going to
be different for each student.

00:44:20.040 --> 00:44:21.680
Each student is going to
have a different use,

00:44:21.680 --> 00:44:23.240
usage for each emoji,

00:44:23.240 --> 00:44:26.160
what it means in that
certain context based on

00:44:26.160 --> 00:44:29.920
whatever their behavioral
baseline already is.

00:44:29.920 --> 00:44:32.000
It's going to be different
for each student.

00:44:32.000 --> 00:44:34.040
But just know that they
are using emoji's

00:44:34.040 --> 00:44:37.440
to express behaviors
and certain situations.

00:44:39.960 --> 00:44:43.040
So is TikTok hiding this to keep
away attention from the topic,

00:44:43.040 --> 00:44:45.040
or is there a way of
bringing attention

00:44:45.040 --> 00:44:46.880
and giving other ideas?

00:44:46.880 --> 00:44:49.120
So I think it's more along
the lines of that second.

00:44:49.120 --> 00:44:51.000
It's hiding that information,

00:44:51.000 --> 00:44:53.600
but also kind of saving
face saying that oh yeah,

00:44:53.600 --> 00:44:55.680
we're totally about
mental health awareness

00:44:55.680 --> 00:44:57.240
and we'll use
this hashtag,

00:44:57.240 --> 00:45:00.440
but they're not actually going
to do anything about it, right?

00:45:00.440 --> 00:45:03.600
So they're going to censor that
content that goes against

00:45:03.600 --> 00:45:04.720
their community guidelines

00:45:04.720 --> 00:45:08.200
because brand deals
and sponsors,

00:45:08.200 --> 00:45:10.080
again, it's all about making
money for the company,

00:45:10.080 --> 00:45:11.200
so they're not going to say

00:45:11.200 --> 00:45:14.240
that our platform is used
for other individuals

00:45:14.240 --> 00:45:16.280
to express their
mental health concerns

00:45:16.280 --> 00:45:17.840
or showcase their self-harm,

00:45:17.840 --> 00:45:19.480
because that's
not brand friendly.

00:45:19.480 --> 00:45:21.200
That's not money friendly.

00:45:21.200 --> 00:45:23.440
And that's the only
reason why they do that.

00:45:23.440 --> 00:45:26.040
So it's very unfortunate, but.

00:45:26.040 --> 00:45:28.840
One of the resources I wanted to
share with you folks is when

00:45:28.840 --> 00:45:31.320
we do come across some
of these hashtags

00:45:31.320 --> 00:45:32.720
that we've never seen before,

00:45:32.720 --> 00:45:35.080
what does it mean, how
do we navigate through it?

00:45:35.080 --> 00:45:36.920
Well, there are websites
out there for that.

00:45:36.920 --> 00:45:40.680
So tagdef.com is a really great
way to actually search hashtags

00:45:40.680 --> 00:45:43.360
or phrases, find out what
the actual meaning is,

00:45:43.360 --> 00:45:44.600
where it started from.

00:45:44.600 --> 00:45:45.880
And again, this will
be put in a link

00:45:45.880 --> 00:45:47.400
in the chat at the end
of my session here,

00:45:47.400 --> 00:45:49.080
so just know that
that's coming.

00:45:49.080 --> 00:45:50.840
Tagdef.com is a really
great website

00:45:50.840 --> 00:45:52.120
just too really quickly check,

00:45:52.120 --> 00:45:53.400
see what does this
hashtag mean,

00:45:53.400 --> 00:45:54.520
where does it come from

00:45:54.520 --> 00:45:56.200
and where is
it being utilized.

00:45:56.200 --> 00:45:58.960
So some other great resources
to try to figure out

00:45:58.960 --> 00:45:59.880
some of this lingo

00:45:59.880 --> 00:46:02.400
that is being utilized,
that is out there,

00:46:02.400 --> 00:46:04.200
urban dictionary.

00:46:04.200 --> 00:46:06.880
Honestly, as much as it's
funny to utilize that,

00:46:06.880 --> 00:46:08.240
urban dictionary has saved me

00:46:08.240 --> 00:46:09.760
many time in trying
to figure out

00:46:09.760 --> 00:46:11.400
what this certain hashtag means,

00:46:11.400 --> 00:46:13.400
what this
certain phrase means.

00:46:13.400 --> 00:46:15.360
And it gives you plenty of
different resources

00:46:15.360 --> 00:46:18.480
and definitions that could
potentially match up

00:46:18.480 --> 00:46:20.000
with what that phrase

00:46:20.000 --> 00:46:22.920
or what that word or what that
hashtag potentially means.

00:46:22.920 --> 00:46:26.120
As old as urban dictionary is,
it is still being utilized

00:46:26.120 --> 00:46:29.000
and kept up to date with what's
current and what's trending.

00:46:29.000 --> 00:46:31.240
As well, in our parent resources
section in our website,

00:46:31.240 --> 00:46:32.800
again, completely for free.

00:46:32.800 --> 00:46:37.840
We've put in an internet lingo
slang terms and dictionary.

00:46:37.840 --> 00:46:39.160
So some of these words,

00:46:39.160 --> 00:46:42.680
I mean, maybe you folks have
seen before in the past.

00:46:42.680 --> 00:46:45.680
Some of you, you may have never
seen any of these words at all.

00:46:45.680 --> 00:46:48.600
Some of these words, these
hashtags, these phrases,

00:46:48.600 --> 00:46:51.040
we've put together in a
comprehensive guide

00:46:51.040 --> 00:46:55.600
to kind of get a better sense of
how are you communicating,

00:46:55.600 --> 00:46:57.200
what exactly that means.

00:46:57.200 --> 00:46:58.960
Especially when we look at a
couple different things,

00:46:58.960 --> 00:47:00.520
when we look at wins.

00:47:00.520 --> 00:47:02.520
You'll see the word
nudes beside that.

00:47:02.520 --> 00:47:04.960
So when we look at some of these
different communities,

00:47:04.960 --> 00:47:07.440
these online anonymous
message board groups

00:47:07.440 --> 00:47:11.280
such as 4Chan, such as
8kun and such as,

00:47:11.280 --> 00:47:13.000
again, other forms
of the dark web.

00:47:13.000 --> 00:47:16.120
When they're describing sharing
nudes of other individuals

00:47:16.120 --> 00:47:18.560
who they have either
extorted from

00:47:18.560 --> 00:47:20.280
or saved from the internet,

00:47:20.280 --> 00:47:23.000
they don't refer to them
as nudes or pictures;

00:47:23.000 --> 00:47:24.800
they refer to them as wins,

00:47:24.800 --> 00:47:27.440
almost as if this is
a game to them.

00:47:27.440 --> 00:47:33.560
Sharing the stolen images of
other abused women, children,

00:47:33.560 --> 00:47:36.440
and any other individuals that
have their naked picture stolen.

00:47:36.440 --> 00:47:39.920
So very unfortunate, but knowing
the language helps us

00:47:39.920 --> 00:47:42.360
keep better on top of what
is happening out there.

00:47:42.360 --> 00:47:43.760
Somebody sent me a
direct message here,

00:47:43.760 --> 00:47:46.840
Know Your Meme is another great
resources, absolutely.

00:47:46.840 --> 00:47:50.480
So I'll put a link to
Know Your Meme as well.

00:47:50.480 --> 00:47:51.600
So some of the other trends that

00:47:51.600 --> 00:47:54.480
we're starting to
notice here, omegle.

00:47:54.480 --> 00:47:56.680
Omegle, this came out in 2009.

00:47:56.680 --> 00:47:59.960
How is it still
trending in 2022?

00:47:59.960 --> 00:48:02.480
Well, for a long
time actually Omegle

00:48:02.480 --> 00:48:03.800
was not a concern of ours.

00:48:03.800 --> 00:48:06.720
It was not on our radar because
it usually fizzled out.

00:48:06.720 --> 00:48:09.080
But what happened with the
advent of TikTok

00:48:09.080 --> 00:48:10.520
included different challenges,

00:48:10.520 --> 00:48:11.840
worrisome challenges,

00:48:11.840 --> 00:48:13.400
including the devious
looks challenge,

00:48:13.400 --> 00:48:14.880
which I'll talk about
in just a short

00:48:14.880 --> 00:48:16.080
couple moments here.

00:48:16.080 --> 00:48:19.200
But those who are posting
TikTok challenges

00:48:19.200 --> 00:48:21.600
and trends are starting
to use Omegle now.

00:48:21.600 --> 00:48:24.240
Because Omegle connects you
with random strangers

00:48:24.240 --> 00:48:25.600
online through video

00:48:25.600 --> 00:48:28.400
and some of them are posting
their reactions through TikTok.

00:48:28.400 --> 00:48:31.400
And because these omelet
reactions of these challenges

00:48:31.400 --> 00:48:34.240
were getting lots of views,
other youth are going to want to

00:48:34.240 --> 00:48:36.800
visit Omegle and find out,

00:48:36.800 --> 00:48:39.600
connect with other individuals
through video chat,

00:48:39.600 --> 00:48:40.920
through text chat.

00:48:40.920 --> 00:48:43.640
But of course, you never
know who is going to be

00:48:43.640 --> 00:48:45.120
on the other side of the camera,

00:48:45.120 --> 00:48:46.920
so it's really important
to have conversations

00:48:46.920 --> 00:48:50.360
with our youth about not
using Omegle at all.

00:48:50.360 --> 00:48:53.920
I very much recommend not
going on this app because

00:48:53.920 --> 00:48:55.400
it has been known

00:48:55.400 --> 00:48:59.840
that it's accessible
from any device,

00:48:59.840 --> 00:49:02.720
laptops, tablets, phones.

00:49:02.720 --> 00:49:05.240
But even on their website, it
said predators have been

00:49:05.240 --> 00:49:08.200
known to use Omegle,
so be careful.

00:49:08.200 --> 00:49:10.360
It says that video is
monitored, keep it clean,

00:49:10.360 --> 00:49:12.000
but you can see right
underneath that section

00:49:12.000 --> 00:49:13.440
it says there's an
adult section,

00:49:13.440 --> 00:49:15.200
there's an unmoderated section.

00:49:15.200 --> 00:49:17.280
So how easy is it
to click on that

00:49:17.280 --> 00:49:19.200
and visit the
unmoderated section?

00:49:19.200 --> 00:49:21.960
We just don't know what our
youth can be exposed to

00:49:21.960 --> 00:49:24.440
when we look at these
two initial screenshots.

00:49:24.440 --> 00:49:28.400
We cannot be for sure what

00:49:28.400 --> 00:49:31.920
and who we are going to
be engaging with.

00:49:36.640 --> 00:49:41.520
Some of them post virus links,
some of them post other nudes.

00:49:41.520 --> 00:49:44.480
Don't recommend
visiting this website.

00:49:44.480 --> 00:49:46.920
All right, some of the last
trends that we are seeing, very,

00:49:46.920 --> 00:49:49.200
very concerning trends
that really affect our

00:49:49.200 --> 00:49:50.920
schools' climate,
culture and safety,

00:49:50.920 --> 00:49:52.680
and this really goes
back to the data

00:49:52.680 --> 00:49:55.560
that we've seen in regards
to bullying, cyberbullying

00:49:55.560 --> 00:49:57.240
and negative digital
climate and culture

00:49:57.240 --> 00:50:00.080
and that is anonymous
Instagram accounts.

00:50:00.080 --> 00:50:03.480
So some of you have probably
seen an increase in school

00:50:03.480 --> 00:50:07.160
based Instagram accounts when
it relates to meme accounts,

00:50:07.160 --> 00:50:08.480
tea pages.

00:50:08.480 --> 00:50:11.200
Again, tea is the gossip,
you're spilling the tea,

00:50:11.200 --> 00:50:15.760
so gossip pages, fight pages
and bathroom accounts.

00:50:15.760 --> 00:50:19.040
So bathroom shoes has been a
huge, huge increase in

00:50:19.040 --> 00:50:22.520
what we've seen where youth are
actually going into the bathroom

00:50:22.520 --> 00:50:25.400
and taking photos of other
students, of their shoes,

00:50:25.400 --> 00:50:27.440
while they are in the stall.

00:50:27.440 --> 00:50:29.480
Now of course, that in

00:50:29.480 --> 00:50:31.840
and of itself is a huge
violation of privacy

00:50:31.840 --> 00:50:33.600
and Instagram, unfortunately,

00:50:33.600 --> 00:50:36.240
does not get rid
of these accounts.

00:50:36.240 --> 00:50:38.320
So one of the things that
schools are really trying

00:50:38.320 --> 00:50:41.240
to deal with right now is who is
behind these Instagram accounts,

00:50:41.240 --> 00:50:42.920
who created these accounts?

00:50:42.920 --> 00:50:45.440
Well, in a perfect world, a lot
of the accounts would look

00:50:45.440 --> 00:50:48.200
like this account here, right?

00:50:48.200 --> 00:50:51.200
It would say that, we've
covered their user names,

00:50:51.200 --> 00:50:54.240
but in the bio, two of the user
names are perfectly visible.

00:50:54.240 --> 00:50:55.920
We can click and visit
and say oh look,

00:50:55.920 --> 00:50:57.400
these are the two
that are there.

00:50:57.400 --> 00:50:59.920
But the majority of the
time it's going to be

00:50:59.920 --> 00:51:02.200
anonymous users who
create these accounts.

00:51:02.200 --> 00:51:05.120
The only way that we'd be able
to find this information is

00:51:05.120 --> 00:51:07.680
if police were able to go
through the police portals

00:51:07.680 --> 00:51:10.320
and get that emergency
subscriber information.

00:51:10.320 --> 00:51:13.600
But because this is not a life
or death situation, it's very,

00:51:13.600 --> 00:51:15.440
very unlikely that any
of that information

00:51:15.440 --> 00:51:16.600
is going to be given.

00:51:16.600 --> 00:51:20.240
So we have to rely on reporting,
which Instagram gets thousands

00:51:20.240 --> 00:51:22.840
and thousands of reports
of these per day.

00:51:22.840 --> 00:51:24.560
Even when we look at some
of the comments

00:51:24.560 --> 00:51:26.720
that our students are leaving

00:51:26.720 --> 00:51:30.040
saying that I'm never
going to go to the restroom

00:51:30.040 --> 00:51:32.400
at school again, I'm never going
to use the bathroom again.

00:51:32.400 --> 00:51:35.120
I don't feel safe
coming to school

00:51:35.120 --> 00:51:38.200
because of these accounts.

00:51:38.200 --> 00:51:40.640
But Instagram does
not delete them,

00:51:40.640 --> 00:51:42.280
they don't get rid of them.

00:51:42.280 --> 00:51:45.680
So part of the ways that we're
trying to get our staff

00:51:45.680 --> 00:51:49.200
a little bit in the know about
how to spot these accounts,

00:51:49.200 --> 00:51:50.960
how to deal with these accounts,

00:51:50.960 --> 00:51:52.880
is through a couple
of different things.

00:51:52.880 --> 00:51:55.040
So what I have on my screen
here is just going to be

00:51:55.040 --> 00:51:57.640
a basic video walk through
of some of the things

00:51:57.640 --> 00:52:00.400
that our team utilizes to
try to figure out

00:52:00.400 --> 00:52:01.920
who are behind these accounts

00:52:01.920 --> 00:52:05.960
and then what we can do to
give them those resources.

00:52:05.960 --> 00:52:10.000
So basically what we're looking
at is an uncensored

00:52:10.000 --> 00:52:12.400
nude bathroom account here.

00:52:12.400 --> 00:52:17.400
And some of the ways that we try
to engage and go through these

00:52:17.400 --> 00:52:20.120
accounts is we try to
identify followers.

00:52:20.120 --> 00:52:23.800
We try to identify who is
engaging with this account

00:52:23.800 --> 00:52:26.920
because there is not one hundred
percent way to figure out

00:52:26.920 --> 00:52:29.080
who actually owns this account.

00:52:29.080 --> 00:52:31.400
We can only try to
send off to the school

00:52:31.400 --> 00:52:33.520
names of some of
those key players.

00:52:33.520 --> 00:52:34.880
And it doesn't look
like my video

00:52:34.880 --> 00:52:36.680
is playing for some reason.

00:52:36.680 --> 00:52:38.120
I do apologize, folks.

00:52:39.400 --> 00:52:41.360
But I do have a kind of step
by step walk through

00:52:41.360 --> 00:52:42.600
in a couple of different slides.

00:52:42.600 --> 00:52:44.080
But essentially,
what I want to do,

00:52:44.080 --> 00:52:45.800
and I want to do this with
the threat assessment

00:52:45.800 --> 00:52:48.600
based account, is I want
to try to figure out

00:52:48.600 --> 00:52:50.000
who's following
the account

00:52:50.000 --> 00:52:52.280
and who is followed
by the account.

00:52:52.280 --> 00:52:55.160
So I can click on followers,
and if I have an account,

00:52:55.160 --> 00:52:56.840
I can view all of the followers,

00:52:56.840 --> 00:52:58.560
I can view all
the following

00:52:58.560 --> 00:53:01.800
and then I can compare some of
those names into who's liking,

00:53:01.800 --> 00:53:03.120
who's commenting,

00:53:03.120 --> 00:53:05.520
who's engaging with
this account the most.

00:53:05.520 --> 00:53:07.760
Because that's really what I
want to try to find out,

00:53:07.760 --> 00:53:09.920
who is engaging with this
account the most.

00:53:09.920 --> 00:53:12.800
Because then what I want to do
is I want to have them down

00:53:12.800 --> 00:53:15.560
and sit them down for some
in person interviews

00:53:15.560 --> 00:53:18.840
to ask do you know who
runs this account,

00:53:18.840 --> 00:53:20.400
or better yet,
can you show me

00:53:20.400 --> 00:53:23.200
the Instagram accounts
that you're logged into?

00:53:23.200 --> 00:53:25.880
So for those of you who don't
know, with Instagram,

00:53:25.880 --> 00:53:29.800
you are actually able to show
the different profiles

00:53:29.800 --> 00:53:31.000
that you're logged into.

00:53:31.000 --> 00:53:32.320
So if we have these
conversations,

00:53:32.320 --> 00:53:35.200
you know, with our phones
sitting on the table

00:53:35.200 --> 00:53:37.320
so nobody can see,
or touch them,

00:53:37.320 --> 00:53:41.040
they're right there so
everybody can see them, rather.

00:53:41.040 --> 00:53:43.320
Have the student go into
their profile on Instagram,

00:53:43.320 --> 00:53:47.600
go to their profile page,
go log into their account.

00:53:47.600 --> 00:53:50.760
Then, again, they can switch
or log into existing accounts

00:53:50.760 --> 00:53:52.000
just by simply tapping

00:53:52.000 --> 00:53:55.400
on their user name at the
very top of their profile.

00:53:55.400 --> 00:53:59.360
So then what happens is that
a page will show up,

00:53:59.360 --> 00:54:01.320
and if they're logged into
more than one account,

00:54:01.320 --> 00:54:03.200
all of those user names
will be visible.

00:54:03.200 --> 00:54:07.400
So if you can see that oh look,
that user name matches

00:54:07.400 --> 00:54:09.680
the bathroom shoes account
that we're looking for,

00:54:09.680 --> 00:54:11.360
you have the account owner.

00:54:11.360 --> 00:54:12.840
And, more importantly,
you can ask them

00:54:12.840 --> 00:54:15.360
to delete the account
right then and there.

00:54:15.360 --> 00:54:17.560
That's going to be a lot more
effective than relying on

00:54:17.560 --> 00:54:20.680
Instagram to see this and
remove the account for us.

00:54:20.680 --> 00:54:22.880
So some of the tools
that we utilize

00:54:22.880 --> 00:54:24.800
to try to figure this out.

00:54:24.800 --> 00:54:27.640
We actually use
browsers and extensions.

00:54:27.640 --> 00:54:29.760
So some of the extensions
that we use are primarily,

00:54:29.760 --> 00:54:31.560
or one of the
extensions that we use

00:54:31.560 --> 00:54:34.800
is called igfollowerexport.

00:54:34.800 --> 00:54:36.200
I'll put a link to
that in the chat.

00:54:36.200 --> 00:54:38.360
It's available on the
Chrome web stores.

00:54:38.360 --> 00:54:41.240
So if you have Google Chrome,
you can utilize this.

00:54:41.240 --> 00:54:43.640
We haven't found a
good one for Firefox.

00:54:43.640 --> 00:54:46.160
But essentially what it does
is it scrapes Instagram,

00:54:46.160 --> 00:54:47.920
the public Instagram account

00:54:47.920 --> 00:54:50.880
and it pulls the data
from the followers.

00:54:50.880 --> 00:54:53.320
So it pulls followers
and it pulls following.

00:54:53.320 --> 00:54:57.600
And, most importantly, it pulls
in reverse chronological order.

00:54:57.600 --> 00:55:00.400
So what I can do is I can
scroll all the way down

00:55:00.400 --> 00:55:01.680
to the bottom of those followers

00:55:01.680 --> 00:55:04.000
and I can see the first four
or five individuals

00:55:04.000 --> 00:55:07.080
who were followed
by and follow the account.

00:55:07.080 --> 00:55:08.960
Typically, what we find
with these accounts

00:55:08.960 --> 00:55:13.120
is the creators tend to reach
out to their peer group first.

00:55:13.120 --> 00:55:15.840
So they'll reach out to people
who are around their same age,

00:55:15.840 --> 00:55:18.200
same grade, same classes

00:55:18.200 --> 00:55:19.720
and then they will
start to branch out

00:55:19.720 --> 00:55:21.880
and reach out to some of
their other peers

00:55:21.880 --> 00:55:23.280
within the school.

00:55:23.280 --> 00:55:26.600
So we take some of those first
few names and we kind of,

00:55:26.600 --> 00:55:27.960
we've put the green
in their ourselves,

00:55:27.960 --> 00:55:29.400
but we highlight them based on

00:55:29.400 --> 00:55:31.640
who's liked the
most amount of photos,

00:55:31.640 --> 00:55:33.800
who's commented the most
amount of photos.

00:55:33.800 --> 00:55:35.520
And then those are
the key students

00:55:35.520 --> 00:55:38.200
that we actually get in
for an interview.

00:55:38.200 --> 00:55:40.200
And we've found
that it does work.

00:55:40.200 --> 00:55:41.960
So this is the tool that
I'm talking about,

00:55:41.960 --> 00:55:44.000
IG Follower Export tool.

00:55:44.000 --> 00:55:45.440
You login with your account

00:55:45.440 --> 00:55:47.880
and then you type in the
user name that you want.

00:55:47.880 --> 00:55:51.800
It spits it out in a
perfect Excel sheet

00:55:51.800 --> 00:55:53.360
and it's very, very effective.

00:55:53.360 --> 00:55:55.760
So again, I'll put a link to
the chat in the very end,

00:55:55.760 --> 00:55:58.120
but just to know that
these solutions work.

00:55:58.120 --> 00:56:01.120
You know, this is one that we've
dealt with a couple weeks ago

00:56:01.120 --> 00:56:02.800
and the steps that we gave,

00:56:02.800 --> 00:56:05.440
the school was able to
identify their creators.

00:56:05.440 --> 00:56:08.160
They got the account removed
and it was a happy ending.

00:56:08.160 --> 00:56:11.800
So just an example, this is
kind of our step by step

00:56:11.800 --> 00:56:13.080
for school districts

00:56:13.080 --> 00:56:15.280
when dealing with some
of these hate based accounts

00:56:15.280 --> 00:56:19.200
is finding the key players.

00:56:19.200 --> 00:56:23.800
Knowing who's following and
followed by said pages,

00:56:23.800 --> 00:56:25.680
and then of course,
going through,

00:56:25.680 --> 00:56:28.280
confirming that they
attend our school

00:56:28.280 --> 00:56:31.360
and then having some of
those in person interviews.

00:56:31.360 --> 00:56:34.200
So really, really effective
ways to try to find out

00:56:34.200 --> 00:56:35.680
and get rid of these
Instagram accounts

00:56:35.680 --> 00:56:38.000
because they are such a pain

00:56:38.000 --> 00:56:41.040
in dealing with some
of these schools.

00:56:41.040 --> 00:56:43.840
So these are some of the
things that we are seeing.

00:56:43.840 --> 00:56:46.600
And it's not going
to be specific

00:56:46.600 --> 00:56:48.400
to each one of your districts

00:56:48.400 --> 00:56:50.600
because you are the experts
in your own districts,

00:56:50.600 --> 00:56:51.760
in your communities.

00:56:51.760 --> 00:56:54.200
You are going to know what
some things are going on,

00:56:54.200 --> 00:56:55.960
what is happening around
in your community.

00:56:55.960 --> 00:56:57.920
So what I want to do for
this next little bit

00:56:57.920 --> 00:56:59.560
is get a little bit
more interactive

00:56:59.560 --> 00:57:02.200
and show you folks some
ways that you can utilize

00:57:02.200 --> 00:57:04.200
some open source
searching techniques

00:57:04.200 --> 00:57:05.840
to find what is going on

00:57:05.840 --> 00:57:09.320
and track what is going around
in some of your schools,

00:57:09.320 --> 00:57:12.320
your communities, to stay on
top of what is happening.

00:57:12.320 --> 00:57:13.360
So more importantly,

00:57:13.360 --> 00:57:15.360
if there is something that
does start to escalate,

00:57:15.360 --> 00:57:16.760
get some communication out.

00:57:16.760 --> 00:57:18.680
So what we're going to look
at is how to identify

00:57:18.680 --> 00:57:20.840
some of the trends in
your own area.

00:57:20.840 --> 00:57:23.960
So one of the things that is
the most easily accessible

00:57:23.960 --> 00:57:27.600
for everybody is Google.

00:57:27.600 --> 00:57:29.800
Yeah, Google, believe it or not.

00:57:29.800 --> 00:57:31.920
All right, so this is going
to be a little bit of an

00:57:31.920 --> 00:57:33.200
interactive portion.

00:57:33.200 --> 00:57:36.000
So I'll just give you folks a
quick little bit of a tech tip.

00:57:36.000 --> 00:57:38.280
So if you're working on
a singular laptop

00:57:38.280 --> 00:57:40.640
in a single screen, no problem.

00:57:40.640 --> 00:57:42.240
Because I've shared my screen,

00:57:42.240 --> 00:57:45.040
sometimes it makes the Zoom
window go full screen.

00:57:45.040 --> 00:57:47.960
You can just press escape and my
shared screen is still there,

00:57:47.960 --> 00:57:49.800
but you can navigate
through other apps.

00:57:49.800 --> 00:57:53.240
If you're on a PC,
utilize alt tab.

00:57:53.240 --> 00:57:55.280
That way, you can actually
switch back and forth between

00:57:55.280 --> 00:57:57.400
the most recent apps
that you've used.

00:57:57.400 --> 00:57:59.040
So that way you can switch
back and forth

00:57:59.040 --> 00:58:01.320
between either your
email, the Zoom meeting

00:58:01.320 --> 00:58:04.000
or the browser and
your Zoom meeting.

00:58:04.000 --> 00:58:06.280
Just a quick way of navigating
through different apps.

00:58:06.280 --> 00:58:08.640
So if you, once we get to some
of these hands on portions,

00:58:08.640 --> 00:58:11.640
you can alt tab to your
browser, start these searches

00:58:11.640 --> 00:58:13.000
and we can go from there.

00:58:13.000 --> 00:58:16.880
So I know a lot of us have
probably utilized Google before,

00:58:16.880 --> 00:58:19.880
but I'm going to share with you
folks some really great ways of

00:58:19.880 --> 00:58:22.600
making our searches a
little bit more effective.

00:58:22.600 --> 00:58:26.000
So I'll ask the question to you
folks, you don't have to answer,

00:58:26.000 --> 00:58:28.840
but how many of you have
Googled yourselves before?

00:58:28.840 --> 00:58:30.160
I'm sure the
majority of us have.

00:58:30.160 --> 00:58:32.360
We want to know what information
is out there about us

00:58:32.360 --> 00:58:33.880
and we want to see,

00:58:33.880 --> 00:58:36.160
we want to improve
our own digital literacy

00:58:36.160 --> 00:58:37.560
because we want to
know what posts,

00:58:37.560 --> 00:58:39.720
what websites,
include our name.

00:58:39.720 --> 00:58:40.720
Absolutely.

00:58:40.720 --> 00:58:42.560
I would suggest too, though,
that not a lot of folks

00:58:42.560 --> 00:58:45.840
actually know how to properly
utilize Google.

00:58:45.840 --> 00:58:47.680
And what we're going to look at
for the next couple of minutes

00:58:47.680 --> 00:58:51.120
is how we gather data for
our threat assessments,

00:58:51.120 --> 00:58:53.560
how we can gather
data about ourselves

00:58:53.560 --> 00:58:55.120
and of course, how we
can gather data

00:58:55.120 --> 00:58:58.400
about certain trends that are
going around in our communities.

00:58:58.400 --> 00:59:00.080
So what we're going to look
at is the usage of

00:59:00.080 --> 00:59:02.120
Boolean search operators.

00:59:02.120 --> 00:59:05.800
This is a searching technique
used within Google.

00:59:05.800 --> 00:59:08.400
Basically what this means is
we're going to add bits of code

00:59:08.400 --> 00:59:12.400
or syntax to our Google searches
which Google understands

00:59:12.400 --> 00:59:13.800
as specific filters

00:59:13.800 --> 00:59:17.920
and requirements for what it
shows us in our searching.

00:59:17.920 --> 00:59:21.080
So the first one, and arguably
the most effective one

00:59:21.080 --> 00:59:23.760
that we're going to look
at is quotation marks.

00:59:23.760 --> 00:59:25.120
And to do this more effectively,

00:59:25.120 --> 00:59:26.640
I'm actually going to
go live on my screen

00:59:26.640 --> 00:59:29.840
here to show you folks
exactly how easy it is.

00:59:29.840 --> 00:59:31.200
So I'll just zoom here on
the screen here,

00:59:31.200 --> 00:59:32.720
so it's a little bit easier.

00:59:32.720 --> 00:59:34.400
So for those of you who
have Google yourselves,

00:59:34.400 --> 00:59:36.600
you've probably done
something similar to this.

00:59:36.600 --> 00:59:38.440
You've put your first and
last name into Google,

00:59:38.440 --> 00:59:40.600
you want to see what
information shows up.

00:59:40.600 --> 00:59:41.760
But you can see,

00:59:41.760 --> 00:59:43.480
I'll go full screen here so
it's easier to say,

00:59:43.480 --> 00:59:47.360
there's about 3.5 million
results for my searches.

00:59:47.360 --> 00:59:49.200
I know I'm not that popular.

00:59:49.200 --> 00:59:51.600
There's definitely not that much
information out there about me.

00:59:51.600 --> 00:59:53.520
But basically what
Google is doing is

00:59:53.520 --> 00:59:55.040
pulling every single result

00:59:55.040 --> 00:59:56.560
that contains the work Colton

00:59:56.560 --> 00:59:59.520
and every single result that
contains the word Easton.

00:59:59.520 --> 01:00:02.240
That's not necessarily helpful
for what I want to search,

01:00:02.240 --> 01:00:06.000
so all I need to do is actually
encapsulate Colton Easton

01:00:06.000 --> 01:00:07.920
within quotation marks.

01:00:07.920 --> 01:00:12.360
And what Google understands this
as is show me every result that

01:00:12.360 --> 01:00:16.880
contains Colton Easton together
and exclude everything else.

01:00:16.880 --> 01:00:19.480
So watch my results change
when I hit search from

01:00:19.480 --> 01:00:25.160
3.5 million to just over 13,000.

01:00:25.160 --> 01:00:26.600
I've excluded millions

01:00:26.600 --> 01:00:29.160
and millions of results
that don't contain my first

01:00:29.160 --> 01:00:30.720
and last name somewhere else.

01:00:30.720 --> 01:00:34.320
They have to, these words have
to appear in order together.

01:00:34.320 --> 01:00:36.160
So this is really,
really effective

01:00:36.160 --> 01:00:37.840
when we are searching things

01:00:37.840 --> 01:00:41.720
like user names or
hashtags or email addresses

01:00:41.720 --> 01:00:44.240
or addresses, or phone numbers.

01:00:44.240 --> 01:00:46.440
So what I want you folks to do
right now is actually

01:00:46.440 --> 01:00:48.360
I want you to go to a
Google page right now

01:00:48.360 --> 01:00:51.400
and try this background
check 101 on yourselves.

01:00:51.400 --> 01:00:53.640
Google your first and last
name, Google your city

01:00:53.640 --> 01:00:55.200
and your state afterwards.

01:00:55.200 --> 01:00:58.280
Search your address, phone
number, email, user names.

01:00:58.280 --> 01:01:01.080
Do this all searching
within quotation marks.

01:01:01.080 --> 01:01:04.200
See what information comes up.

01:01:04.200 --> 01:01:07.240
And if you have Google
results before,

01:01:07.240 --> 01:01:09.400
compare your results now versus

01:01:09.400 --> 01:01:11.920
what you already knew
was out there about you.

01:01:11.920 --> 01:01:14.080
So give you folks a couple
of minutes to do this.

01:01:14.080 --> 01:01:16.600
And again, you can use the
chat if you want to ask me any

01:01:16.600 --> 01:01:19.200
questions as you are searching,
because I've got it here.

01:01:19.200 --> 01:01:21.480
But as well, utilize the
chat and let me know

01:01:21.480 --> 01:01:24.520
if you found anything new

01:01:24.520 --> 01:01:27.760
that you didn't know was out
there before already.

01:01:27.760 --> 01:01:31.000
So I'll be here, I'll give
you folks a couple minutes.

01:01:31.000 --> 01:01:33.320
Let me know if you
have any questions.

01:01:33.320 --> 01:01:36.560
Great question, Kathleen, so
clarifying these quotes,

01:01:36.560 --> 01:01:38.000
song lyrics and captions.

01:01:38.000 --> 01:01:39.200
So this is specific,

01:01:39.200 --> 01:01:41.840
what we would say for some of
our actual threat assessment

01:01:41.840 --> 01:01:46.400
searching because captions are
such an important part of posts.

01:01:46.400 --> 01:01:47.880
So of course, when
somebody writes,

01:01:47.880 --> 01:01:49.800
let's go back to our self-harm
related posts

01:01:49.800 --> 01:01:51.200
where somebody says
don't worry guys,

01:01:51.200 --> 01:01:55.080
I was just grounded for a long
time, yadda, yadda, yadda.

01:01:55.080 --> 01:01:59.200
If that was a concerning post
that maybe read like a poem

01:01:59.200 --> 01:02:00.920
or a diary entry

01:02:00.920 --> 01:02:04.040
or a movie quote,
it just reads like that,

01:02:04.040 --> 01:02:07.080
what I would actually want to do
is take that specific caption

01:02:07.080 --> 01:02:09.680
and put it into Google
with quotation marks.

01:02:09.680 --> 01:02:11.080
Because if it's song lyrics,

01:02:11.080 --> 01:02:13.000
Google's going to be
able to identify that.

01:02:13.000 --> 01:02:14.720
And if they are
posting self-harm

01:02:14.720 --> 01:02:15.920
or threat related content

01:02:15.920 --> 01:02:18.200
through their captions
that we can say, no,

01:02:18.200 --> 01:02:20.240
that's actually not original
quotes by them;

01:02:20.240 --> 01:02:21.800
it's from this song, it's from,

01:02:21.800 --> 01:02:23.200
you know, this country song

01:02:23.200 --> 01:02:24.400
or if it's from this rap song,

01:02:24.400 --> 01:02:26.160
here's the song,
here's the lyrics.

01:02:26.160 --> 01:02:28.560
It does decrease our level
of risk and it depends,

01:02:28.560 --> 01:02:30.280
of course, on what
their baseline is.

01:02:30.280 --> 01:02:31.800
If their baseline is posting

01:02:31.800 --> 01:02:34.600
all these consistent
threat related content,

01:02:34.600 --> 01:02:36.200
but it's all from song lyrics,

01:02:36.200 --> 01:02:38.080
well our level of risk
actually goes down.

01:02:40.480 --> 01:02:43.400
So that's why I say search song
lyrics and captions, you know,

01:02:43.400 --> 01:02:45.480
just things to take a look at.

01:02:45.480 --> 01:02:48.600
So interesting to search your
name with your employer

01:02:48.600 --> 01:02:51.240
for sure, obituary popped up.

01:02:51.240 --> 01:02:54.600
Yeah, obituaries are a huge
source of information, actually,

01:02:54.600 --> 01:02:57.120
because it includes lots
of different family names.

01:02:57.120 --> 01:03:00.800
So you know, once you get
to searching addresses,

01:03:00.800 --> 01:03:02.120
some of you actually may find

01:03:02.120 --> 01:03:05.960
that your home address is
visible with your first

01:03:05.960 --> 01:03:07.800
and last name, some
of your family names.

01:03:07.800 --> 01:03:09.760
It's scary information.

01:03:09.760 --> 01:03:12.800
But just know that you can
request these websites

01:03:12.800 --> 01:03:14.320
to remove your information,

01:03:14.320 --> 01:03:16.240
especially these
people search engines.

01:03:16.240 --> 01:03:18.440
Like some of you may get,
like True People search

01:03:18.440 --> 01:03:22.440
or Fast People search or
Spokeo or Family Tree Now.

01:03:22.440 --> 01:03:25.760
All of these different websites
host personal information,

01:03:25.760 --> 01:03:28.880
like real estate records,
family names.

01:03:28.880 --> 01:03:32.000
But just know that you can
request each website

01:03:32.000 --> 01:03:33.480
to remove your information.

01:03:33.480 --> 01:03:36.160
It does take time,
but it is effective.

01:03:38.480 --> 01:03:40.200
All right, I know this is
non-allotted time

01:03:40.200 --> 01:03:41.480
to continue your searches,

01:03:41.480 --> 01:03:43.520
but there's actually more
Boolean search operators

01:03:43.520 --> 01:03:46.280
that I want to add to
your tool belt moving forward.

01:03:46.280 --> 01:03:47.280
And more importantly,

01:03:47.280 --> 01:03:50.320
how we can utilize this in
the context of prevention.

01:03:50.320 --> 01:03:52.800
So we're utilizing
ourselves as the target.

01:03:52.800 --> 01:03:54.120
This kinds of serves
as two purpose.

01:03:54.120 --> 01:03:56.400
Number one, finding out what
more information is out there

01:03:56.400 --> 01:03:58.880
about us, but number two,
once we learn all these,

01:03:58.880 --> 01:04:00.120
we can target

01:04:00.120 --> 01:04:02.800
and switch our searches
to our specific communities,

01:04:02.800 --> 01:04:05.040
our schools, and what
those look like.

01:04:05.040 --> 01:04:08.360
So the next Boolean search
operator we're going to add

01:04:08.360 --> 01:04:12.320
to our tool belt is called the
not Boolean search operator.

01:04:12.320 --> 01:04:14.000
And to demonstrate
that effectively,

01:04:14.000 --> 01:04:16.960
I'm going to go live
on the screen again.

01:04:16.960 --> 01:04:19.600
So you've seen my
search results here.

01:04:19.600 --> 01:04:23.560
When I pull my first and last
name up within quotation marks,

01:04:23.560 --> 01:04:25.440
you see that there's
13,000 results.

01:04:25.440 --> 01:04:26.920
Still a lot of results.

01:04:26.920 --> 01:04:28.360
But as I scroll down,
there's somebody

01:04:28.360 --> 01:04:29.640
who has the same name as me

01:04:29.640 --> 01:04:32.200
who is a group controller
at Jacobson and Greiner.

01:04:32.200 --> 01:04:34.200
That's definitely not my job.

01:04:34.200 --> 01:04:35.640
I scroll down a little bit more

01:04:35.640 --> 01:04:40.720
and I see that there is a lead
prospects hockey player.

01:04:40.720 --> 01:04:42.200
A full confession
to make, folks.

01:04:42.200 --> 01:04:45.160
I know I'm from Canada, I
can't even skate properly.

01:04:45.160 --> 01:04:48.120
So that is not me, I know
that's not related to me.

01:04:48.120 --> 01:04:51.000
So if there is results
that are not related

01:04:51.000 --> 01:04:52.760
to you on your Google search,

01:04:52.760 --> 01:04:54.400
or not related to
what you want to find on your

01:04:54.400 --> 01:04:57.920
Google search, all you need to
do is go back up to your search

01:04:57.920 --> 01:04:59.600
and just tap the minus key.

01:04:59.600 --> 01:05:02.240
And then exclude
and write any word

01:05:02.240 --> 01:05:04.600
that you want to not show
up in your results.

01:05:04.600 --> 01:05:07.640
And you can add as many
exclusions as you want.

01:05:07.640 --> 01:05:10.000
So I know that I'm not a group
controller and I know that

01:05:10.000 --> 01:05:12.400
there's nothing related
to me about hockey.

01:05:12.400 --> 01:05:15.280
So what happens
when I hit enter?

01:05:15.280 --> 01:05:17.440
My results go down
a couple thousand.

01:05:17.440 --> 01:05:20.920
But I can guarantee you that
none of the results here

01:05:20.920 --> 01:05:24.400
now include the word controller
or the word hockey.

01:05:24.400 --> 01:05:28.400
They do not exist in any
of these 11,000 results.

01:05:28.400 --> 01:05:32.880
So that is the effectiveness of
a not Boolean search operator.

01:05:32.880 --> 01:05:35.000
You can exclude certain words

01:05:35.000 --> 01:05:37.720
and phrases from
your search results.

01:05:37.720 --> 01:05:41.280
So if somebody has a little bit
more Google clout than you,

01:05:41.280 --> 01:05:45.400
as I like to call it, you can go
back to your searches here.

01:05:45.400 --> 01:05:47.560
I'll go back live on the
screen, Rene, no problem.

01:05:47.560 --> 01:05:50.000
You can go back to your
search here and let's say,

01:05:51.680 --> 01:05:53.160
I can just start with one word.

01:05:53.160 --> 01:05:55.320
So let's say I want to get
rid of the world controller.

01:05:55.320 --> 01:05:58.400
So I'll just go back up to my
Google search, I'll add a space

01:05:58.400 --> 01:06:00.240
and I'll just type
the minus key.

01:06:00.240 --> 01:06:03.720
And then immediately adjacent to
the minus key I'm going to write

01:06:03.720 --> 01:06:08.080
the word I want to exclude
from all of my searches.

01:06:08.080 --> 01:06:10.640
So I want, I don't want
the word controller

01:06:10.640 --> 01:06:12.240
to show up in any
of my searches.

01:06:12.240 --> 01:06:17.560
So I enter and then my results
don't change that much,

01:06:17.560 --> 01:06:19.440
but the word controller

01:06:19.440 --> 01:06:25.080
is nowhere to be found in any of
these 13,000 search results.

01:06:25.080 --> 01:06:26.440
And again, if I want to
add another word,

01:06:26.440 --> 01:06:29.120
all I need to do is
just add a space,

01:06:29.120 --> 01:06:32.160
hit the minus key, and then
type in whatever word

01:06:32.160 --> 01:06:35.960
I want and enter, and
then they change.

01:06:35.960 --> 01:06:40.160
And again, I can make this as
much or as little as I want.

01:06:40.160 --> 01:06:41.200
So that is it.

01:06:41.200 --> 01:06:43.840
Again, if somebody has a little
bit more of Google clout,

01:06:43.840 --> 01:06:45.800
you know, they've got the
same first and last name,

01:06:45.800 --> 01:06:49.480
but maybe exclude their,

01:06:49.480 --> 01:06:53.160
exclude their job,
profession, title.

01:06:53.160 --> 01:06:54.920
Or if you're searching your
school, perhaps,

01:06:54.920 --> 01:06:57.400
and your school name
is extremely common,

01:06:57.400 --> 01:06:59.200
well maybe exclude some
of those states

01:06:59.200 --> 01:07:02.240
or cities that have
that school name.

01:07:03.960 --> 01:07:05.400
So I won't give you too
long to play around

01:07:05.400 --> 01:07:06.840
with this because it is,

01:07:06.840 --> 01:07:09.120
it does get time consuming,
because it is fun

01:07:09.120 --> 01:07:10.400
to play around with a lot,

01:07:10.400 --> 01:07:11.840
but we'll move on
to our next one

01:07:11.840 --> 01:07:14.200
in just a couple
of seconds here.

01:07:14.200 --> 01:07:18.080
All right, so that is the
minus key and sure Ann,

01:07:18.080 --> 01:07:19.680
you got it absolutely right.

01:07:19.680 --> 01:07:21.880
So our next Boolean
search operator

01:07:21.880 --> 01:07:24.920
that we're going to look at
is the opposite of not.

01:07:24.920 --> 01:07:27.000
Instead of excluding key words,

01:07:27.000 --> 01:07:28.840
we're actually going
to shift our focus now

01:07:28.840 --> 01:07:31.160
into including
certain key words

01:07:31.160 --> 01:07:33.800
that have to be present
within our searches,

01:07:33.800 --> 01:07:38.800
and that is the effectiveness
of the and operator.

01:07:38.800 --> 01:07:41.200
So the and operator
is inclusionary

01:07:41.200 --> 01:07:43.560
and thus limits our
search very much.

01:07:43.560 --> 01:07:46.960
Should be used for things like
targeting required skills,

01:07:46.960 --> 01:07:50.320
experiences, technologies, and
titles that you would want

01:07:50.320 --> 01:07:52.040
to limit your search results to.

01:07:52.040 --> 01:07:55.120
So again, as an example, I'll go
live on my screen here

01:07:55.120 --> 01:07:57.360
to show you folks exactly
what that looks like.

01:07:57.360 --> 01:08:00.520
So instead of using the minus
key to exclude things

01:08:00.520 --> 01:08:03.920
that are not related to me,
how about I change that up?

01:08:03.920 --> 01:08:06.160
Instead of using not, I
want to find everything

01:08:06.160 --> 01:08:07.920
there is to do with me

01:08:07.920 --> 01:08:11.080
and I'll use the plus
symbol this time,

01:08:11.080 --> 01:08:14.200
Safer Schools Together.

01:08:14.200 --> 01:08:17.080
And because Safer Schools
Together is more than one word,

01:08:17.080 --> 01:08:19.600
I want to encapsulate
that in quotation marks.

01:08:19.600 --> 01:08:22.120
So once I hit enter,

01:08:22.120 --> 01:08:23.880
I only get 86 results,

01:08:23.880 --> 01:08:25.480
which is a lot more manageable

01:08:25.480 --> 01:08:29.560
to look through in terms
of results in searching.

01:08:29.560 --> 01:08:32.680
So just know that you can
use the and operator,

01:08:32.680 --> 01:08:34.000
if you want to try it.

01:08:34.000 --> 01:08:35.400
So somebody mentioned that
searching her name

01:08:35.400 --> 01:08:36.440
and their employer.

01:08:36.440 --> 01:08:38.440
Try utilizing your first
and last name

01:08:38.440 --> 01:08:40.200
and the use the plus symbol

01:08:40.200 --> 01:08:41.880
and then the name
of your employer,

01:08:41.880 --> 01:08:44.120
or the name of your city
or state or wherever,

01:08:44.120 --> 01:08:47.800
or how specific you want
to search this for.

01:08:47.800 --> 01:08:52.400
Alternatively, if you do not
want to use the plus symbol,

01:08:52.400 --> 01:08:57.800
you can type capital A and D
and then add a space there.

01:08:57.800 --> 01:09:00.720
It has to be capitalized, A
and D has to be capitalized,

01:09:00.720 --> 01:09:02.200
otherwise it will not work.

01:09:02.200 --> 01:09:03.960
But once I do capital A and D,

01:09:03.960 --> 01:09:06.960
I get ten more results
for some reason.

01:09:06.960 --> 01:09:10.400
So I would recommend playing
around with either

01:09:10.400 --> 01:09:13.000
the plus symbol or
capital A and D.

01:09:15.360 --> 01:09:17.840
But that is how it works,
so that is the

01:09:17.840 --> 01:09:19.760
and Boolean search operator.

01:09:19.760 --> 01:09:21.800
Again, it's inclusionary.

01:09:21.800 --> 01:09:24.320
It has to have some
of these results

01:09:24.320 --> 01:09:26.520
in order for it to show up.

01:09:28.480 --> 01:09:31.120
So for example, we have in
one of our slides here,

01:09:31.120 --> 01:09:34.000
so we want to use
your school name.

01:09:34.000 --> 01:09:35.200
You could search
your school name

01:09:35.200 --> 01:09:36.640
and then include things like

01:09:36.640 --> 01:09:40.880
and threats, and
social media, and lockdown.

01:09:40.880 --> 01:09:47.600
But just know with every and,
you add to your Boolean query,

01:09:47.600 --> 01:09:50.560
your search, the fewer results
you will typically get.

01:09:50.560 --> 01:09:53.240
So unless you're searching
for common words,

01:09:53.240 --> 01:09:54.280
it's going to be okay,

01:09:54.280 --> 01:09:55.760
but with every
and that you add,

01:09:55.760 --> 01:09:58.200
it's going to very much exclude
some of your results.

01:09:58.200 --> 01:10:03.000
So I recommend playing around
with a combination of different

01:10:03.000 --> 01:10:05.400
Boolean search operators.

01:10:05.400 --> 01:10:07.240
All right, so the last
Boolean search operator

01:10:07.240 --> 01:10:09.200
that we're going
to take a look at

01:10:09.200 --> 01:10:13.440
and get a better sense of
how to utilize is the

01:10:13.440 --> 01:10:17.480
or Boolean
search operator.

01:10:17.480 --> 01:10:20.320
So the or Boolean search
operator is technically

01:10:20.320 --> 01:10:23.400
interpreted as at
least one is required

01:10:23.400 --> 01:10:27.080
or more than one or all
of these can be returned.

01:10:27.080 --> 01:10:31.640
So some people think that the or
is an either/or type situation,

01:10:31.640 --> 01:10:32.960
but that's not the case.

01:10:32.960 --> 01:10:36.200
It will include any one
of them, one or many.

01:10:36.200 --> 01:10:40.960
So this is going to actually
broaden your search results.

01:10:40.960 --> 01:10:43.200
You're going to get a lot
of more search results

01:10:43.200 --> 01:10:46.360
when you utilize the or
Boolean search operator.

01:10:46.360 --> 01:10:48.600
So how we would recommend
utilizing this

01:10:48.600 --> 01:10:50.000
or search operator

01:10:50.000 --> 01:10:53.080
is if you are engaging
in an active threat assessment,

01:10:53.080 --> 01:10:56.440
you know the first and last name
of your subject of concern.

01:10:56.440 --> 01:10:59.400
You know at least one or
two different user names

01:10:59.400 --> 01:11:01.560
that they go by on social media

01:11:01.560 --> 01:11:03.200
and you can see in our
example here that

01:11:03.200 --> 01:11:05.040
we have a couple of
different examples.

01:11:05.040 --> 01:11:08.840
So you could use capital O-R
as your operator

01:11:08.840 --> 01:11:11.000
or you could use
the pipe symbol,

01:11:11.000 --> 01:11:13.120
which is just pressing shift
and then it's usually

01:11:13.120 --> 01:11:15.200
the key above the enter key,

01:11:15.200 --> 01:11:16.560
just the straight
up and down line.

01:11:16.560 --> 01:11:18.520
So you would want to
search their first

01:11:18.520 --> 01:11:20.240
and last name in
quotation marks,

01:11:20.240 --> 01:11:24.600
or user name 1 or user
name 2 or user name 3.

01:11:24.600 --> 01:11:26.800
And again, you can use
as many as you want.

01:11:26.800 --> 01:11:28.280
And basically
what this does is

01:11:28.280 --> 01:11:30.000
because user names
are so important,

01:11:30.000 --> 01:11:32.880
they're the lifeblood
to our youth and how they define

01:11:32.880 --> 01:11:35.200
and how they represent
themselves online,

01:11:35.200 --> 01:11:36.400
usually we find that

01:11:36.400 --> 01:11:39.800
they want to maintain some
consistency with their brand,

01:11:39.800 --> 01:11:41.400
or whatever they
want to share online.

01:11:41.400 --> 01:11:45.000
So when we utilize different
user names in our searches,

01:11:45.000 --> 01:11:47.800
we're just asking Google where
else have you seen these

01:11:47.800 --> 01:11:50.000
user names in other social
media platforms.

01:11:50.000 --> 01:11:53.880
So let's say they own or we know
that they have an Instagram

01:11:53.880 --> 01:11:56.680
and a Twitter account and they
utilize that same user name.

01:11:56.680 --> 01:11:57.840
Well, that's good news for us.

01:11:57.840 --> 01:11:59.800
So we can take the Google,
search their first

01:11:59.800 --> 01:12:01.800
and last name or user name 1

01:12:01.800 --> 01:12:04.120
or whatever user
name that they have.

01:12:04.120 --> 01:12:07.400
If it's the same, that's good,
because Google's going to pull

01:12:07.400 --> 01:12:10.120
all the other different search
area social media pages

01:12:10.120 --> 01:12:14.200
that include that user name.

01:12:14.200 --> 01:12:15.600
So maybe they have
a TikTok account

01:12:15.600 --> 01:12:16.640
that we didn't know about.

01:12:16.640 --> 01:12:20.000
Maybe they have a Talenin page
that we had no idea about

01:12:20.000 --> 01:12:22.560
and there's more pieces
of information there.

01:12:22.560 --> 01:12:24.760
So when we, in our
second workshop

01:12:24.760 --> 01:12:26.320
that we have tomorrow
in the afternoon,

01:12:26.320 --> 01:12:28.040
when you have
Dr. Greg Gerber,

01:12:28.040 --> 01:12:29.400
he's going to go more into depth

01:12:29.400 --> 01:12:30.760
in some of these
search techniques

01:12:30.760 --> 01:12:33.800
and tactics about
how important it is

01:12:33.800 --> 01:12:35.640
for that early identification.

01:12:35.640 --> 01:12:38.480
So there are so many things that
are missed in our behavioral

01:12:38.480 --> 01:12:42.120
threat assessment world that,
unfortunately, rely,

01:12:42.120 --> 01:12:43.560
on social media searching

01:12:43.560 --> 01:12:46.640
and digital threat
assessment to capture.

01:12:46.640 --> 01:12:48.600
When we look at some of
these examples of the data

01:12:48.600 --> 01:12:52.080
that's missed, a lot of it
does come from social media.

01:12:52.080 --> 01:12:54.080
So it's so important that
our threat assessment,

01:12:54.080 --> 01:12:55.520
our school safety teams,

01:12:55.520 --> 01:12:58.280
equip themselves with the
knowledge to identify

01:12:58.280 --> 01:13:01.000
what some of these new worrisome
trends are or, again,

01:13:01.000 --> 01:13:04.160
how to pull the digital
behavioral baseline

01:13:04.160 --> 01:13:05.800
from a subject of concern.

01:13:05.800 --> 01:13:08.200
Understanding what they're
filling themselves up with.

01:13:08.200 --> 01:13:10.560
Knowing when there are shifts
in some of their posts.

01:13:10.560 --> 01:13:12.760
Are they escalating in
their frequency of posts,

01:13:12.760 --> 01:13:14.960
their intensity, their
recency of posts?

01:13:14.960 --> 01:13:16.320
These are such important things.

01:13:16.320 --> 01:13:19.320
But of course, it's not
just as simple as that;

01:13:19.320 --> 01:13:21.840
it's also trying to stay on top
of what our current trends are

01:13:21.840 --> 01:13:23.600
and what is happening
within our school communities

01:13:23.600 --> 01:13:24.800
and our systems.

01:13:24.800 --> 01:13:26.840
And hopefully, some of these
Boolean search operators

01:13:26.840 --> 01:13:29.480
can help you folks kind of get
a better sense of that.

01:13:29.480 --> 01:13:31.160
And we're not done
with these yet. No, no.

01:13:31.160 --> 01:13:33.920
We'll look at these and some
more on how we can do this.

01:13:33.920 --> 01:13:35.240
So what I want to do
right now, folks,

01:13:35.240 --> 01:13:37.440
is I want to give you just
a short amount of time

01:13:37.440 --> 01:13:39.800
to find a Boolean
search query

01:13:39.800 --> 01:13:43.960
that works best for you in
regards to your school.

01:13:43.960 --> 01:13:46.200
So instead of your first and
last name as your target,

01:13:46.200 --> 01:13:47.720
which I'm sure a lot of
you have probably

01:13:47.720 --> 01:13:50.440
found a lot of interesting
information about yourselves,

01:13:50.440 --> 01:13:52.560
I want you to try
maybe your workplace

01:13:52.560 --> 01:13:56.280
or your school or your
district as your search target

01:13:56.280 --> 01:13:58.880
and utilize some of these
Boolean search operators.

01:13:58.880 --> 01:14:03.280
So instead, you could have
your school name

01:14:03.280 --> 01:14:04.840
and then you could use the

01:14:04.840 --> 01:14:07.640
and Boolean search
operator, so school name

01:14:07.640 --> 01:14:11.560
and threats or lockdown,

01:14:11.560 --> 01:14:13.800
or social
media or teacher

01:14:13.800 --> 01:14:16.640
or knife or bomb or kill.

01:14:16.640 --> 01:14:20.040
As many safety related keywords
that you can think of that

01:14:20.040 --> 01:14:24.800
kind of represents, gives
you some good results.

01:14:24.800 --> 01:14:26.840
So I want you to take the
time to do this right now.

01:14:26.840 --> 01:14:29.720
So you could open up your,
your browser,

01:14:29.720 --> 01:14:31.800
you can open up your Google page

01:14:31.800 --> 01:14:33.400
and then start to configure.

01:14:33.400 --> 01:14:36.000
And know that you can use a
combination of all the

01:14:36.000 --> 01:14:37.480
Boolean search operators.

01:14:37.480 --> 01:14:44.320
So you can say that I want to
search, you know, school name

01:14:44.320 --> 01:14:50.800
and then I'll use capital A-N-D
and threats or lockdown

01:14:50.800 --> 01:14:54.200
or TikTok

01:14:54.200 --> 01:14:55.840
or kill

01:14:55.840 --> 01:14:58.960
or bomb.

01:14:58.960 --> 01:15:01.320
All of these safety related
keywords I can search.

01:15:01.320 --> 01:15:03.560
But let's say, I know this
isn't a real school name,

01:15:03.560 --> 01:15:09.920
we'll just use, I'll just use
one of our school names here.

01:15:16.200 --> 01:15:17.600
So now I'm getting all
these different results.

01:15:17.600 --> 01:15:20.080
So let's say that there
is keywords in here

01:15:20.080 --> 01:15:22.400
that are not related to
what I want to look for.

01:15:22.400 --> 01:15:24.600
I'll just pick one
that I see here.

01:15:24.600 --> 01:15:26.440
I see the RCMP is used a lot.

01:15:26.440 --> 01:15:28.200
This is relevant to my search,

01:15:28.200 --> 01:15:30.680
so I'll definitely want to
keep RCMP, our police, here.

01:15:30.680 --> 01:15:33.680
But let's say for just some
reason I wanted to exclude RCMP,

01:15:33.680 --> 01:15:35.080
I would add all of
these keywords

01:15:35.080 --> 01:15:40.000
and then I would just use the
minus key and then RCMP.

01:15:40.000 --> 01:15:44.560
And then it gets rid
of a lot of other,

01:15:44.560 --> 01:15:47.000
all the other results
that have RCMP.

01:15:47.000 --> 01:15:49.160
So let's say you're getting
too much of this result.

01:15:49.160 --> 01:15:51.240
Well, then you can
exclude that keyword.

01:15:51.240 --> 01:15:53.200
Or, let's say you're not getting
enough of that result,

01:15:53.200 --> 01:15:55.360
then you can use the and
Boolean search operator.

01:15:55.360 --> 01:15:58.320
So complicated when you
look at it at first,

01:15:58.320 --> 01:15:59.640
but it starts to make sense

01:15:59.640 --> 01:16:02.320
when you start to
kind of get these posts

01:16:02.320 --> 01:16:05.800
and these searching a little bit
more easily identifiable.

01:16:05.800 --> 01:16:08.280
So that's the or Bollean
search operator.

01:16:08.280 --> 01:16:11.040
So again, take a couple minutes,

01:16:11.040 --> 01:16:13.760
find a search that
works best for you.

01:16:13.760 --> 01:16:16.400
Because the good news is, we're
only going to have to initiate

01:16:16.400 --> 01:16:18.800
this search once
with our next tool.

01:16:18.800 --> 01:16:20.520
So give you folks
about two minutes

01:16:20.520 --> 01:16:22.720
and then I'll show the
next tool here.

01:16:22.720 --> 01:16:25.680
Ah, someone's been doing their
searches in Duck Duck Go.

01:16:25.680 --> 01:16:26.760
Absolutely.

01:16:26.760 --> 01:16:31.840
So Duck Duck Go is more of a
privacy focused browser

01:16:31.840 --> 01:16:34.600
which we absolutely love to use.

01:16:34.600 --> 01:16:38.440
For the majority of school
safety teams, we give Google

01:16:38.440 --> 01:16:43.520
as the one to utilize as it's
the most familiar to folks.

01:16:43.520 --> 01:16:45.160
But if you are interested,

01:16:45.160 --> 01:16:49.560
Duck Duck Go is a privacy
based search engine.

01:16:49.560 --> 01:16:54.200
I haven't used most of these
Boolean search operators

01:16:54.200 --> 01:16:55.600
within Duck Duck Go.

01:16:55.600 --> 01:16:57.640
I haven't had the chance to
actually play around with them.

01:16:57.640 --> 01:17:00.320
But some Boolean search
operators won't work

01:17:00.320 --> 01:17:02.000
in other search engines.

01:17:02.000 --> 01:17:04.680
We just know that Google, that
we find, has the most capability

01:17:04.680 --> 01:17:07.400
of utilizing Boolean
search operators.

01:17:07.400 --> 01:17:08.480
That's why we give it,

01:17:08.480 --> 01:17:09.840
but if you want to
try your searches

01:17:09.840 --> 01:17:11.120
in other search engines,

01:17:11.120 --> 01:17:13.600
like Duck Duck Go or
Bing, Bing's actually

01:17:13.600 --> 01:17:16.200
a pretty good search
engine, believe it or not,

01:17:16.200 --> 01:17:18.800
you can try those out as well.

01:17:18.800 --> 01:17:23.520
And the other reason why we give
Google is this next tool

01:17:23.520 --> 01:17:28.640
which is Google Alerts.

01:17:28.640 --> 01:17:31.720
So any search that you folks
have been doing with your

01:17:31.720 --> 01:17:35.800
Boolean search results will
work within Google Alerts.

01:17:35.800 --> 01:17:39.920
So that way you don't have to go
back to your long Boolean query,

01:17:39.920 --> 01:17:42.200
write it down, copy it somewhere

01:17:42.200 --> 01:17:45.000
and search Google every time you
want to see what's going on.

01:17:45.000 --> 01:17:49.400
No, with Google Alerts you just
need to initiate a search once,

01:17:49.400 --> 01:17:52.680
enter your email for whatever
you want it to be,

01:17:52.680 --> 01:17:55.000
whatever email you
want this to go to

01:17:55.000 --> 01:17:57.640
and it will send you an alert.

01:17:57.640 --> 01:18:02.560
You can create alerts based
on the time of day,

01:18:02.560 --> 01:18:06.040
how often you want to receive
these and it's a great way.

01:18:06.040 --> 01:18:07.680
It can just be part of
your check-ins,

01:18:07.680 --> 01:18:09.720
your email check-ins
in the morning.

01:18:09.720 --> 01:18:12.200
Figure out what's going
around in your community.

01:18:12.200 --> 01:18:14.200
So it doesn't have
to be as complicated

01:18:14.200 --> 01:18:15.360
as the one that I've had.

01:18:15.360 --> 01:18:18.360
You can make it as
simple as you can.

01:18:18.360 --> 01:18:19.640
Oh, okay.

01:18:19.640 --> 01:18:22.400
So Duck Duck Go, these Boolean
search operators will not work.

01:18:22.400 --> 01:18:24.120
That's what I thought.

01:18:24.120 --> 01:18:28.440
So the Boolean search operator
that we have on this example,

01:18:28.440 --> 01:18:30.400
we didn't have time to cover.

01:18:30.400 --> 01:18:32.720
We do cover actually in our
advanced digital threat

01:18:32.720 --> 01:18:35.520
assessment training,
which is site colon.

01:18:35.520 --> 01:18:39.720
So utilizing this Boolean
search operator, site colon,

01:18:39.720 --> 01:18:41.560
and then we type in youtube.com

01:18:41.560 --> 01:18:45.240
tells Google that we only want
results from youtube.com

01:18:45.240 --> 01:18:47.000
that match school fight BC.

01:18:47.000 --> 01:18:48.120
So we can categorize.

01:18:48.120 --> 01:18:52.000
We can specify that we only want
results from certain websites.

01:18:52.000 --> 01:18:55.720
We can specify results from
only certain file types.

01:18:55.720 --> 01:18:59.800
So we can search pdf's or data
sheets or Excel sheets

01:18:59.800 --> 01:19:01.400
or Word documents.

01:19:01.400 --> 01:19:02.960
These are all Boolean
search operators

01:19:02.960 --> 01:19:04.360
that we're capable of using,

01:19:04.360 --> 01:19:07.800
but just for the sake of
time the and, or, not

01:19:07.800 --> 01:19:09.600
and the quotation marks

01:19:09.600 --> 01:19:12.680
do a wonderful job of
refining results.

01:19:12.680 --> 01:19:14.480
So go into Google Alerts.

01:19:14.480 --> 01:19:17.120
And again, I'll put a link
to this in the chat when,

01:19:17.120 --> 01:19:19.040
once I'm done my
session here, folks.

01:19:19.040 --> 01:19:20.880
But again, you can customize,

01:19:20.880 --> 01:19:23.520
you can create as many Google
Alerts as you want.

01:19:23.520 --> 01:19:26.040
So maybe you're in charge
of multiple schools.

01:19:26.040 --> 01:19:28.000
You can have that
school as the target

01:19:28.000 --> 01:19:29.800
and then you just change
the name of the school

01:19:29.800 --> 01:19:31.240
with the same
amount of keywords

01:19:31.240 --> 01:19:33.920
and you have all that easily
coming to your email.

01:19:33.920 --> 01:19:35.520
You don't even need
to think about it.

01:19:35.520 --> 01:19:38.320
It's just a part of your
routine, weekly routine,

01:19:38.320 --> 01:19:40.240
where you only initiate
the search once.

01:19:40.240 --> 01:19:42.680
So it does take a little
bit of work on the backend,

01:19:42.680 --> 01:19:45.280
but I promise, it is
worth it in the future.

01:19:45.280 --> 01:19:46.600
Because we are, our team here,

01:19:46.600 --> 01:19:49.120
we've got TV screens dedicated
to all of our Google Alerts.

01:19:49.120 --> 01:19:51.040
All of our Twitter
geo code searches,

01:19:51.040 --> 01:19:54.080
which is actually something
we're going to talk about next.

01:19:54.080 --> 01:19:57.320
And it's a really
great tool to use.

01:19:57.320 --> 01:20:02.400
So before we actually
get into Twitter,

01:20:02.400 --> 01:20:04.720
do I have a list of recommended
Google Alerts to set up?

01:20:04.720 --> 01:20:06.040
I unfortunately, don't.

01:20:06.040 --> 01:20:08.240
That's a really great
question, Tammy.

01:20:08.240 --> 01:20:11.320
Because you folks are the
experts in your own districts,

01:20:11.320 --> 01:20:13.600
you are going to know what
some of those keywords

01:20:13.600 --> 01:20:14.600
are going to be

01:20:14.600 --> 01:20:16.240
or what some of those
situations are going to be.

01:20:16.240 --> 01:20:18.200
And because the way
that social media

01:20:18.200 --> 01:20:20.480
and technology is
always changing,

01:20:20.480 --> 01:20:22.720
some of these trends
are going to change,

01:20:22.720 --> 01:20:24.760
so we need to also keep
up with our trends

01:20:24.760 --> 01:20:27.160
and our alerts to figure out
what else is changing.

01:20:27.160 --> 01:20:29.520
So unfortunately I
don't have a set list,

01:20:29.520 --> 01:20:31.200
but it's a good
question to bring up.

01:20:31.200 --> 01:20:35.160
Maybe something we can look at
that with our team internally.

01:20:35.160 --> 01:20:39.920
All right, so some of the other
ways that we identify trends.

01:20:39.920 --> 01:20:44.280
And we identify what's going on
in our area is through Snapchat.

01:20:44.280 --> 01:20:47.600
We love utilizing Snapchat and
we love giving school safety

01:20:47.600 --> 01:20:50.280
and threat assessment teams
some of the key features

01:20:50.280 --> 01:20:52.520
that they need to know when
it comes to utilizing

01:20:52.520 --> 01:20:54.080
Snapchat appropriately.

01:20:54.080 --> 01:20:56.320
So just for your folks'
consideration,

01:20:56.320 --> 01:20:58.800
some of us may have Snapchat,
some of us don't.

01:20:58.800 --> 01:21:02.960
But in terms of sending a photo,
this is a very, very brief

01:21:02.960 --> 01:21:06.240
description of how we would
send a photo or a video.

01:21:06.240 --> 01:21:08.280
I know we can send text,
but this is really for

01:21:08.280 --> 01:21:10.000
how we would share it to others.

01:21:10.000 --> 01:21:12.000
So if I take a photo or a video,

01:21:12.000 --> 01:21:15.200
I choose in my contacts list who
I want to send this out to,

01:21:15.200 --> 01:21:19.360
but I also have the availability
to send it elsewhere.

01:21:19.360 --> 01:21:22.920
So I could send this to specific
people on my friends list,

01:21:22.920 --> 01:21:25.040
or I can add it to My Story,

01:21:25.040 --> 01:21:27.360
which we know is a
photo or a video

01:21:27.360 --> 01:21:30.240
that's available for 24 hours
that all of our friends

01:21:30.240 --> 01:21:33.640
and viewers on Snapchat can see.

01:21:33.640 --> 01:21:37.920
But I also have the ability
to send it to the Snap map.

01:21:37.920 --> 01:21:41.360
So the Snap map is actually a
really, really handy tool

01:21:41.360 --> 01:21:44.520
that some of our teams
may not be aware of.

01:21:44.520 --> 01:21:46.920
So basically what happens
within the Snap map

01:21:46.920 --> 01:21:49.400
is that all of these photos,

01:21:49.400 --> 01:21:51.520
all of these
videos that we send,

01:21:51.520 --> 01:21:53.960
they become widely available

01:21:53.960 --> 01:21:58.000
and publicly viewable to anybody
with a Snapchat account

01:21:58.000 --> 01:21:59.840
- sorry, without a
Snapchat account.

01:21:59.840 --> 01:22:02.600
You do not need a Snapchat
account to view these posts

01:22:02.600 --> 01:22:04.680
and these videos on Snap map.

01:22:04.680 --> 01:22:08.560
And how we do that is just
simply going to the website

01:22:08.560 --> 01:22:11.800
here, which is map.snapchat.com.

01:22:11.800 --> 01:22:14.000
Again, I will put a link
to this in the chat.

01:22:14.000 --> 01:22:15.720
Unfortunately, I'm using two
different computers

01:22:15.720 --> 01:22:16.800
for it today,

01:22:16.800 --> 01:22:19.160
so have to run all the way to
the other side of the room,

01:22:19.160 --> 01:22:22.400
but map.snapchat.com.

01:22:22.400 --> 01:22:25.560
So any current video,
any current photo

01:22:25.560 --> 01:22:28.200
that's been posted within
a couple of days,

01:22:28.200 --> 01:22:32.840
not just 24 hours, is
available on the Snap map.

01:22:32.840 --> 01:22:35.520
Now because this is
live on the screen

01:22:35.520 --> 01:22:37.400
and I'm just going to
zoom into Vancouver,

01:22:37.400 --> 01:22:39.000
you can see the
heat signatures,

01:22:39.000 --> 01:22:40.400
those are what you
want to look for.

01:22:40.400 --> 01:22:42.080
You want to look for
those heat signatures,

01:22:42.080 --> 01:22:44.800
those hot spots that
include what is going on.

01:22:44.800 --> 01:22:48.400
And we can zoom down to a
very, very accurate level

01:22:48.400 --> 01:22:50.200
or where we are in the area.

01:22:50.200 --> 01:22:52.920
So you can see there's a
couple blue hotspots here.

01:22:52.920 --> 01:22:54.640
So these are
all photos and videos

01:22:54.640 --> 01:22:56.960
that people have made
publicly available.

01:22:56.960 --> 01:22:58.840
So because this is
live on the screen,

01:22:58.840 --> 01:23:01.600
I don't know what I'm
going to see.

01:23:01.600 --> 01:23:04.000
Usually it's not anything crazy.

01:23:04.000 --> 01:23:06.600
But you can see as recently
as 31 minutes ago,

01:23:06.600 --> 01:23:09.960
somebody is posting videos.

01:23:09.960 --> 01:23:13.520
They're posting photos,
what's going on.

01:23:13.520 --> 01:23:15.960
That's what our weather
looks like right now,

01:23:15.960 --> 01:23:17.280
it's been like that
for a couple days.

01:23:17.280 --> 01:23:19.440
But you can see
how timely it is.

01:23:21.480 --> 01:23:23.880
For the sound.

01:23:23.880 --> 01:23:26.440
But that is available
to the whole world.

01:23:26.440 --> 01:23:28.600
So whenever there's a high
profile incident

01:23:28.600 --> 01:23:30.280
that happens in our community

01:23:30.280 --> 01:23:32.400
or some of the other districts
that we work in,

01:23:32.400 --> 01:23:35.280
Snap map is our number
one place to go because

01:23:35.280 --> 01:23:37.600
that is what we're seeing
at ground zero level.

01:23:37.600 --> 01:23:40.800
We're not getting any other sort
of news agencies are there.

01:23:40.800 --> 01:23:42.800
We're getting what
the people are seeing.

01:23:42.800 --> 01:23:46.600
We're able to identify what is
happening when we are looking at

01:23:46.600 --> 01:23:51.560
any sort of sports arenas or if
there's any other high profile

01:23:51.560 --> 01:23:53.960
incidents that are going
around in the world.

01:23:53.960 --> 01:23:57.800
Snap map we find is such
a timely way

01:23:57.800 --> 01:24:00.760
to share this information.

01:24:00.760 --> 01:24:02.440
So are these posts when
people make public,

01:24:02.440 --> 01:24:04.760
when they post in a
specific location? Absolutely.

01:24:04.760 --> 01:24:07.040
So this is what people
have decided

01:24:07.040 --> 01:24:08.800
to make publicly available.

01:24:08.800 --> 01:24:11.960
This is in no means seeing
every single snap that

01:24:11.960 --> 01:24:13.760
is being sent out in that area.

01:24:13.760 --> 01:24:16.720
Snapchat is mainly one to
one communication platform.

01:24:16.720 --> 01:24:17.760
We're not going to
be able to see

01:24:17.760 --> 01:24:19.120
what I'm sending to my friends.

01:24:19.120 --> 01:24:21.400
We're only seeing what
people have decided

01:24:21.400 --> 01:24:23.320
to make publicly available.

01:24:23.320 --> 01:24:25.440
But you would be surprised
what people decide

01:24:25.440 --> 01:24:27.200
to make publicly available,

01:24:27.200 --> 01:24:28.440
and I'll just leave
it at that.

01:24:28.440 --> 01:24:30.240
So if you want to utilize
this, again,

01:24:30.240 --> 01:24:31.800
you can hover over your area,

01:24:31.800 --> 01:24:35.400
you can go as wide
or as narrow as you want.

01:24:35.400 --> 01:24:37.240
If you do have this
open right now,

01:24:37.240 --> 01:24:39.480
let's say you hover over an area

01:24:39.480 --> 01:24:44.480
and you click and then
it says sorry, no snaps now.

01:24:44.480 --> 01:24:48.480
Widen your search a little bit,
or go maybe local into the city

01:24:48.480 --> 01:24:50.200
and then you can see
some of those hotspots

01:24:50.200 --> 01:24:52.960
or those heat signatures
start to show up

01:24:52.960 --> 01:24:56.480
and then you can look at what's
happening within that area.

01:24:56.480 --> 01:25:01.800
So this is properly
utilized though,

01:25:01.800 --> 01:25:03.720
actually, on the mobile device.

01:25:03.720 --> 01:25:05.800
And there's a really
clear reason why.

01:25:05.800 --> 01:25:10.200
So if you have a
Snapchat account

01:25:10.200 --> 01:25:12.640
that's strictly for threat
assessment searching,

01:25:12.640 --> 01:25:14.720
I highly recommend using it

01:25:14.720 --> 01:25:18.240
because the Snap map feature
is also available on it,

01:25:18.240 --> 01:25:19.800
and I'm just going to
go full screen,

01:25:19.800 --> 01:25:23.000
I'm at full camera here
so you can see me.

01:25:23.000 --> 01:25:24.000
It's going to be really hard,

01:25:24.000 --> 01:25:25.440
it's going to be really
hard to see on here.

01:25:25.440 --> 01:25:26.720
I do apologize.

01:25:26.720 --> 01:25:31.400
But all of the photos and videos
that I've just shown you,

01:25:31.400 --> 01:25:34.560
they exist on the phone too so
let's see if you can see.

01:25:34.560 --> 01:25:36.080
Look, there's The
Simpsons on, right?

01:25:36.080 --> 01:25:37.400
So somebody is doing that.

01:25:37.400 --> 01:25:43.000
But there's actually a very
brand new update that allows you

01:25:43.000 --> 01:25:45.880
to actually see the
creator of the snaps.

01:25:45.880 --> 01:25:48.160
It's only available on mobile,

01:25:48.160 --> 01:25:50.400
but you can see that
there's an option here.

01:25:50.400 --> 01:25:52.600
This is manual focused so you're
not going to be able to see,

01:25:52.600 --> 01:25:55.600
but there's an option at
the very bottom of the snap

01:25:55.600 --> 01:25:57.600
that says view creator.

01:25:57.600 --> 01:26:00.040
And this is something, again,
that's only available on mobile,

01:26:00.040 --> 01:26:02.960
but it's a new update within
Snapchat that allows you

01:26:02.960 --> 01:26:07.120
to see the profile of who
created that snap.

01:26:07.120 --> 01:26:10.400
So what is included in this,
obviously, is user names

01:26:10.400 --> 01:26:12.000
and user names are so,

01:26:12.000 --> 01:26:15.600
so important when we are looking
at Snapchats public Snapchats.

01:26:15.600 --> 01:26:18.400
Because that allows, if
it is important information

01:26:18.400 --> 01:26:21.080
that law enforcement needs
to reach out to Snapchat,

01:26:21.080 --> 01:26:22.760
well they have a
user name there.

01:26:22.760 --> 01:26:25.280
Or, of course, we can
add it to our search now.

01:26:25.280 --> 01:26:27.880
We can take that user name, we
can put it into Google,

01:26:27.880 --> 01:26:29.240
see what results show up.

01:26:29.240 --> 01:26:31.960
Maybe there's another account
that uses that same user name,

01:26:31.960 --> 01:26:35.000
we've got more information
available about this individual.

01:26:35.000 --> 01:26:41.840
So highly recommend visiting the
Snap map on the mobile device,

01:26:41.840 --> 01:26:45.000
but if you can't, Snap map
again is also available

01:26:45.000 --> 01:26:47.520
on the desktop.

01:26:47.520 --> 01:26:53.000
So the website is
map.snapchat.com.

01:26:53.000 --> 01:26:55.840
So if you are blocked from
using this at your work

01:26:55.840 --> 01:26:56.920
or wherever it is,

01:26:56.920 --> 01:26:58.200
you can still actually
view the Snap map

01:26:58.200 --> 01:27:00.040
on your phone without the app.

01:27:00.040 --> 01:27:02.040
Just open up your
browser on your phone,

01:27:02.040 --> 01:27:03.600
whether it's Safari or Chrome

01:27:03.600 --> 01:27:07.200
or whatever, and you can still
go to map.snapchat.com.

01:27:07.200 --> 01:27:09.000
If you're on Wi-Fi,
just go on data

01:27:09.000 --> 01:27:11.920
and you can still see all of the
posts coming out of that area.

01:27:11.920 --> 01:27:14.400
So this is such a really
important tool

01:27:14.400 --> 01:27:16.400
for school safety
teams because again,

01:27:16.400 --> 01:27:19.880
you're getting what's
happening at ground zero.

01:27:19.880 --> 01:27:22.400
So there are no, unfortunately,
other resources

01:27:22.400 --> 01:27:24.000
that we can use within Snapchat.

01:27:24.000 --> 01:27:26.880
It's just utilizing
the Snap map itself,

01:27:26.880 --> 01:27:28.680
but there is some other
key pieces of information

01:27:28.680 --> 01:27:31.880
within the Snap map I wanted to
bring to your attention.

01:27:31.880 --> 01:27:34.920
So looking at all of the
publicly available photos

01:27:34.920 --> 01:27:37.280
and videos is one aspect
of the Snap map.

01:27:37.280 --> 01:27:39.000
But for individual users,

01:27:39.000 --> 01:27:41.200
there's another
really great benefit

01:27:41.200 --> 01:27:44.640
and that is the Snap map of
utilizing bit emoji's.

01:27:44.640 --> 01:27:46.440
So bit emoji's are
similar characters

01:27:46.440 --> 01:27:49.440
that you can make to
look like yourselves.

01:27:49.440 --> 01:27:51.600
This only works,
though, if you are,

01:27:51.600 --> 01:27:53.120
have an active Snapchat account

01:27:53.120 --> 01:27:54.800
and you have
friends on Snapchat.

01:27:54.800 --> 01:27:57.760
But essentially what you can
see, it's very hard to see, but

01:27:57.760 --> 01:27:59.520
you can see all of your friends,

01:27:59.520 --> 01:28:03.200
where they are in real time
in a specific location,

01:28:03.200 --> 01:28:08.600
down to a very scary
accurate level of intent.

01:28:08.600 --> 01:28:10.560
So you can see that we
go all the way here

01:28:10.560 --> 01:28:12.760
and somebody's driving a car,

01:28:12.760 --> 01:28:15.800
it's because Snapchat
knows where they are,

01:28:15.800 --> 01:28:17.000
how fast they're going.

01:28:17.000 --> 01:28:18.960
It takes hold of the GPS data.

01:28:18.960 --> 01:28:20.840
So it knows that they're
driving in a car.

01:28:20.840 --> 01:28:23.040
Well, why is this
information important?

01:28:23.040 --> 01:28:26.960
Why is knowing where locations
of some of our youth are,

01:28:26.960 --> 01:28:28.240
why is it so important?

01:28:28.240 --> 01:28:30.200
Well, when we get to identifying

01:28:30.200 --> 01:28:33.360
or when we start to deal
with missing youth,

01:28:33.360 --> 01:28:35.000
a lot of what our
school safety teams

01:28:35.000 --> 01:28:38.160
and some of the school
resource officers

01:28:38.160 --> 01:28:40.640
don't know is the capability
of the Snap map.

01:28:40.640 --> 01:28:43.720
Because it has location
based information

01:28:43.720 --> 01:28:45.080
within their friends,

01:28:45.080 --> 01:28:48.200
we often recommend school and
safety teams getting together

01:28:48.200 --> 01:28:51.000
with the close peers
of that student

01:28:51.000 --> 01:28:52.400
who is missing and asking,

01:28:52.400 --> 01:28:54.600
do they have their
location on places like

01:28:54.600 --> 01:28:57.400
find my friends, or
the Snap map.

01:28:57.400 --> 01:29:00.440
You can customize who sees
your location and who doesn't.

01:29:00.440 --> 01:29:03.920
So usually we find that close
peers in a tightknit community

01:29:03.920 --> 01:29:06.120
are going to share their
location with their friends

01:29:06.120 --> 01:29:09.520
and this has been utilized to
identify missing youth.

01:29:09.520 --> 01:29:11.320
And this has been such
an effective tool

01:29:11.320 --> 01:29:12.720
for school safety teams,

01:29:12.720 --> 01:29:14.600
even though Snapchat
is primarily

01:29:14.600 --> 01:29:17.600
a one to one
communication platform,

01:29:17.600 --> 01:29:20.080
it's such an effective
way of searching

01:29:20.080 --> 01:29:22.760
and identifying what is
going on in our community.

01:29:22.760 --> 01:29:25.280
Because the Snap map, in terms
of photos and videos,

01:29:25.280 --> 01:29:28.160
are living, breathing, it's a
living and breathing map.

01:29:28.160 --> 01:29:29.480
It's constantly changing,

01:29:29.480 --> 01:29:32.560
it's constantly updating down
to the real time, again.

01:29:32.560 --> 01:29:36.200
So two ways to get to
the Snap map, Tammy.

01:29:36.200 --> 01:29:40.440
If you're on your phone and you
have Snapchat downloaded,

01:29:40.440 --> 01:29:44.720
all you need to do
is click on the,

01:29:44.720 --> 01:29:46.520
I'll actually go full screen
so it's easier to see,

01:29:46.520 --> 01:29:49.800
see this location upside
down teardrop marker

01:29:49.800 --> 01:29:53.040
that's on the very
left hand side of the app?

01:29:53.040 --> 01:29:55.400
That's how you
visit the Snap map.

01:29:55.400 --> 01:29:58.880
Snap map is an opt in feature,
not an opt out feature.

01:29:58.880 --> 01:30:03.000
So you have to approve location,
you have to say that yes,

01:30:03.000 --> 01:30:05.920
I want in on this so I can see
where all my friends are.

01:30:05.920 --> 01:30:08.800
But that's how you access
it on the mobile device.

01:30:08.800 --> 01:30:10.680
And you can see here all
these heat signatures.

01:30:10.680 --> 01:30:13.600
So you've got access to
view all that within there.

01:30:13.600 --> 01:30:17.360
If you want to access this
strictly on the browser,

01:30:17.360 --> 01:30:21.000
you'll need to visit
map.snapchat.com.

01:30:21.000 --> 01:30:23.560
So visiting map.snapchat.com

01:30:23.560 --> 01:30:27.040
only gives you access to the
public photos and videos,

01:30:27.040 --> 01:30:29.920
not locations based
on bit emoji's.

01:30:29.920 --> 01:30:34.400
So you would only see photos and
videos coming out of that area.

01:30:34.400 --> 01:30:39.200
And then as well, if you want to
utilize finding the user names

01:30:39.200 --> 01:30:40.560
behind who were creating these,

01:30:40.560 --> 01:30:42.840
it's very beneficial to
use it on the phone.

01:30:42.840 --> 01:30:45.720
So I very highly recommend
creating a threat assessment

01:30:45.720 --> 01:30:48.920
based Snapchat account and
using that to identify

01:30:48.920 --> 01:30:50.880
what's going around
in your area.

01:30:50.880 --> 01:30:52.960
Is the phone location, if the
phone location is off,

01:30:52.960 --> 01:30:54.440
you can still track using this.

01:30:54.440 --> 01:30:57.920
So if you have your base
phone location settings,

01:30:57.920 --> 01:30:59.200
because every app you know,

01:30:59.200 --> 01:31:01.000
can request
certain permissions.

01:31:01.000 --> 01:31:03.600
So if you go, let's say
IPhone, for example,

01:31:03.600 --> 01:31:05.360
if you go into your
location services

01:31:05.360 --> 01:31:07.120
and you see Snapchat
is on there,

01:31:07.120 --> 01:31:09.560
and let's say it's set to off,

01:31:09.560 --> 01:31:11.960
that means even the app
itself isn't going to be

01:31:11.960 --> 01:31:13.600
able to track
your location.

01:31:13.600 --> 01:31:17.880
Snapchat is going to
pop up a thing that says

01:31:17.880 --> 01:31:20.520
allow location settings
in your phone first

01:31:20.520 --> 01:31:21.680
and then you can use it.

01:31:21.680 --> 01:31:23.760
So if location settings
are off on your phone,

01:31:23.760 --> 01:31:26.160
then Snapchat will not be
able to find this,

01:31:26.160 --> 01:31:27.600
utilize your location.

01:31:27.600 --> 01:31:30.840
So good question, thank
you for asking that.

01:31:30.840 --> 01:31:32.080
I'm just going to
scroll up just a sec

01:31:32.080 --> 01:31:34.400
to see some of the
other questions.

01:31:43.880 --> 01:31:45.000
All right, so a question was,

01:31:45.000 --> 01:31:47.960
what kind of user name would you
suggest for work threats,

01:31:47.960 --> 01:31:49.200
threat assessment Snapchat?

01:31:49.200 --> 01:31:50.680
So as long as you're
not pretending

01:31:50.680 --> 01:31:52.400
to be anybody you're not.

01:31:52.400 --> 01:31:54.000
You know, Greg will actually
talk a little bit more about

01:31:54.000 --> 01:31:57.720
this in his section tomorrow,
but we don't want to pretend

01:31:57.720 --> 01:31:59.480
to be that we're a
student at the school

01:31:59.480 --> 01:32:01.200
reaching out to our youth.

01:32:01.200 --> 01:32:04.600
That definitely breaks the line
of open source intelligence.

01:32:04.600 --> 01:32:06.800
The only reason why we want
to create these accounts

01:32:06.800 --> 01:32:09.280
is just to get our
foot in the door

01:32:09.280 --> 01:32:12.200
to get all of the same access
that anybody else would.

01:32:12.200 --> 01:32:13.680
You know, we're not going
to use this to reach out

01:32:13.680 --> 01:32:15.600
to private accounts,
send messages.

01:32:15.600 --> 01:32:18.200
And what do we call that
specific Snapchat

01:32:18.200 --> 01:32:21.000
or that specific threat
assessment social media account?

01:32:21.000 --> 01:32:22.120
Well, it depends.

01:32:22.120 --> 01:32:24.840
A lot of schools actually have
social media accounts

01:32:24.840 --> 01:32:26.440
that are already being utilized,

01:32:26.440 --> 01:32:28.920
either by students or by
some of the faculty

01:32:28.920 --> 01:32:30.640
as official
school accounts.

01:32:30.640 --> 01:32:33.440
You could absolutely use
those because again,

01:32:33.440 --> 01:32:35.000
it's just getting your
foot in the door.

01:32:35.000 --> 01:32:37.120
So if you want, let's say you're
the Virginia Knights,

01:32:37.120 --> 01:32:39.000
one of your schools is the
Virginia Knights.

01:32:39.000 --> 01:32:40.960
You know, you could
VA Knights 09

01:32:40.960 --> 01:32:42.560
or whatever it is you
want to be.

01:32:42.560 --> 01:32:44.840
As long as you're not pretending
to be somebody you're not.

01:32:44.840 --> 01:32:47.080
So great question.

01:32:47.080 --> 01:32:48.480
Does it track you continuously,

01:32:48.480 --> 01:32:50.640
or spots when they
check in on Snap

01:32:50.640 --> 01:32:52.120
so they know their
location last place?

01:32:52.120 --> 01:32:54.600
So that's a great, that's a
really great question, Monique.

01:32:54.600 --> 01:32:57.640
So Snapchat only tracks
your location

01:32:57.640 --> 01:32:59.840
when you are using Snapchat.

01:32:59.840 --> 01:33:03.000
So, for example, if
I open up a map

01:33:03.000 --> 01:33:05.400
and I'm sorry that you can't
see it on my screen here.

01:33:05.400 --> 01:33:07.520
I'm just going to hover
over to one of my friends

01:33:07.520 --> 01:33:09.080
who is on the map.

01:33:09.080 --> 01:33:10.240
I can see their profile.

01:33:10.240 --> 01:33:12.800
It says one hour ago.

01:33:12.800 --> 01:33:17.000
So one hour ago they
were here on the map.

01:33:17.000 --> 01:33:19.800
But because they haven't opened
up Snapchat for an hour,

01:33:19.800 --> 01:33:21.480
they could have left
and gone completely

01:33:21.480 --> 01:33:23.400
somewhere different
within an hour,

01:33:23.400 --> 01:33:25.160
but their location
still shows there.

01:33:25.160 --> 01:33:27.000
So once they open
up Snapchat again,

01:33:27.000 --> 01:33:28.520
their location is
going to change.

01:33:28.520 --> 01:33:31.000
So it shows you where
their last location was.

01:33:31.000 --> 01:33:34.080
I think the cutoff time is
about eight hours or so.

01:33:34.080 --> 01:33:38.320
So just know that that is one
of the things within Snapchat.

01:33:38.320 --> 01:33:41.320
So great question.

01:33:41.320 --> 01:33:43.400
All right, I am very
much near my time.

01:33:43.400 --> 01:33:45.960
So on behalf of Safer
Schools Together,

01:33:45.960 --> 01:33:48.200
thank you so much for hosting
me for this morning.

01:33:48.200 --> 01:33:50.000
I hope you folks got
some valuable tools

01:33:50.000 --> 01:33:51.360
to take back to your work,

01:33:51.360 --> 01:33:53.440
to your schools,
your workplaces,

01:33:53.440 --> 01:33:55.640
to utilize in terms
of keeping up

01:33:55.640 --> 01:33:57.480
with what is going on
within your community.

01:33:57.480 --> 01:33:59.920
So I hope sharing some of these
trends gives you a little better

01:33:59.920 --> 01:34:03.000
idea of what is going on and
some of these interactions.

01:34:03.000 --> 01:34:05.600
And some of these tools is
really, really beneficial

01:34:05.600 --> 01:34:08.200
because what we aim to give
you folks is exactly

01:34:08.200 --> 01:34:10.600
the same thing that our
analyst team utilizes.

01:34:10.600 --> 01:34:12.800
So our information is
on the screen here,

01:34:12.800 --> 01:34:15.240
info@saferschoolstogether.com.

01:34:15.240 --> 01:34:18.000
Stick around as well because I'm
going to put all of the links

01:34:18.000 --> 01:34:20.800
that I've just talked about, all
of the resources in the chat

01:34:20.800 --> 01:34:22.240
so you folks can have them.

01:34:22.240 --> 01:34:24.440
You can open them up, create
a new bookmark folder,

01:34:24.440 --> 01:34:25.800
do whatever you want with them

01:34:25.800 --> 01:34:27.160
because we want to
give you folks

01:34:27.160 --> 01:34:29.000
the same things that
our team uses.

01:34:29.000 --> 01:34:33.600
So I think I'll pass it
back to the DHS folks

01:34:33.600 --> 01:34:35.000
and I'll be around for a couple

01:34:35.000 --> 01:34:36.720
more minutes if there
are any questions.

01:34:39.120 --> 01:34:40.440
>> Thank you so much, Colton

01:34:40.440 --> 01:34:42.880
and thank you to Safer
Schools Together.

01:34:42.880 --> 01:34:45.800
That was so informative,
important and training.

01:34:45.800 --> 01:34:49.200
If you didn't get a chance to
get your question answered

01:34:49.200 --> 01:34:50.760
or would like to follow-up
with Colton

01:34:50.760 --> 01:34:53.000
or Safer Schools Together,
let us know in the chat.

01:34:53.000 --> 01:34:54.280
Of course, he's going to be
putting all of those resources

01:34:54.280 --> 01:34:56.320
in that chat as well,

01:34:56.320 --> 01:34:59.800
so you'll be able to follow-up
for more information.
