inDigiMOB Resources
Another way inDigiMOB seeks to support communities and partner organisations is by creating appropriate training resources and supporting existing projects and possibilities, according to the needs identified by communities.
Digital Tips Videos
These videos have been created by the program’s Digital Mentors with the help of the inDigiMOB Digital Access Workers and staff. They are aimed at providing entry-level hints and tips about how to use devices and be safe online. Where possible the videos have been translated into languages used by the communities we partner with.

CyberSafety: An Interactive Guide To Staying Safe On The Internet
Everyone should know how to be safe when surfing the web, but internet safety tips and tricks are spread out all over the web without a go-to resource. Since the majority of internet scam and virus victims are students and young people, Open Colleges is a perfect place to post the very first full guide to being safe on the internet.
Disconnect
RMIT University completed a study and report about cyber safety issues (such as cyberbullying, identity theft, harassment and scams) in remote Indigenous communities. They also produced a podcast of the discussions they had with community members about the report findings. It is called Disconnect and it is well worth a listen.
Disconnect was produced by RMIT University with support from Telstra, as an action within the ‘Connection and Capability’ priority focus area of Telstra’s Reconciliation Action Plan 2015–2018. Copyright: RMIT University 2018.
