In psychology, digital risks are treated from the point of view of cognitive overload8 and addictions9. The notion of informational risk is often linked to knowledge management10, problems of manipulation and critical evaluation of sources11 and information asymmetry12. For the manager of a company, the digital risk is linked to the security of data, strategic information or the reputation of the company.

With regard to education and the perception of risks associated with the use of digital technologies, a report published by Christine Dioni in 2008, (The student’s job and the teacher’s job in the digital age), emphasized the problems of discrepancy between the perceptions of students and teachers, as well as between mutual perceptions and the reality of practices13. Just over 10 years later, what is the situation now?

The stakes of digital practices in terms of learning14 and the socioeconomic risks linked to the digital divide15 lead the actors of education to ponder effective means of confronting them. The idea of media risks is also used to denounce inappropriate content, such as violence, incitement to hatred or pornography on the Internet, calling for the establishment of standards16. The risk of ideological and political manipulation is currently back in the media spotlight through the analysis of conspiracy theories, the topic of “fake news” and young people’s susceptibility to propaganda.
