#proudofmyselfie is the little app with two big aims: help to show young people the positive side of social media and encourage them to take ownership of the great things they have achieved. Join teachers – and parents – around the world and encourage the children in your life to share what they are proud of online.
A #proudofmyselfie is simply a selfie, which also contains text explaining what the person in the selfie has done to make themselves proud. It started as a classroom project, then took off as a hashtag and is now also an app!
The #proudofmyselfie app makes taking and sharing a #proudofmyselfie easier than ever:
* Sentence starters included to help younger children put together their #proudofmyselfie text
* Optional school-subject themed frames included to customise each #proudofmyselfie and relate it to learning in school
* Create a simple emoji-style avatar if taking and sharing a selfie online is not for you or not inline with your schools online safety policy
* Personalise your design with different colour text and backgrounds
* Share your #proudofmyselfie via email, Twitter or Facebook direct from the app and the hashtag will be automatically included
So, its time to get involved – share #proudofmyselfies on school social media and in and around school. Make sharing your childrens fantastic achievements easy, fun and personal.
