1.4.1. When perceptions of risk inhibit any practice

Certain perceptions of digital risks seem to be an obstacle. The use of digital practices with students is perceived by some as a problem factor, especially in their relationships with their parents. A schoolteacher explains his reluctance to have his students work on the Internet to us:

I’m not convinced of the parents’ response and I’m afraid of being annoyed, frankly, by the parents’ response. So, I’ve never used it and so, yes, that’s it (schoolteacher, 41 years old).

In secondary education, the use of social media platforms (including YouTube, social networks or blogs) is largely avoided, even though they constitute an important angle of media and information literacy. One schoolteacher expresses her difficulties in considering solutions for covering media and information literacy with her students:

It’s true that it’s very, very regulated, so, uh, even the blog, we’re not going to use just any blog, so it’s the academic blog and we’re obliged, it’s very formalized. So, it’s true that I know that it can be a hindrance, yes (fourth-grade schoolteacher, 25 years old).
