High school students (Grades 9–12) – particularly in digital literacy, computer science, or life‑skills classes. The chapters on social media, cyberbullying, AI pitfalls, and financial scams speak directly to teens.
College undergraduates – freshmen orientation, information security awareness courses, or campus safety programs. The privacy‑by‑design framework and identity theft recovery sections are highly relevant.
