These teachers seem to be informed by the media. They are not unaffected by the talk of risk, but they are not overwhelmed by emotions. Instead, they seek to better understand the risks so they can explain them to students. Thus, unlike those who prefer to stay away from all the threats that digital uses can evoke, others, like these teachers, consider that it is essential to address these issues with students and to help young people more generally:

I’m a teacher, so of course I like to help students and I can’t just leave them struggling, but also and above all because very often Facebook and the Internet and social networks are very impersonal spaces where people expose their happiness or their unhappiness without any real human impact in fact and uh… I don’t claim to change the Internet, but in any case I use the Internet in a human way and if I see that people are putting up alarmist or sexist, xenophobic, discriminatory messages in general, well, I act. I don’t let... I don’t let it go. I don’t remain indifferent (English teacher in a high school, age 25).
