Brand new for 2026 - how are AI filters and social media affecting our body image? In this lesson students delve into ‘filter dysmorphia’ - a new but growing phenomenon affecting the mental health of teens.
Students will investigate how filters are creating completely unrealistic beauty standards - and how with the help of AI, almost undetectable filters are being applied not just to images, but to the videos of influencers and peer social media users too. Students will discover what is behind ‘Instagram Face’, why everyone is starting to look the same as each other in their uploads and the effect this is having on social media users. They will also discover useful and practical ways to relieve any negative thoughts or dysmorphia and the real message of the lesson - the importance of being authentic.
Includes clip tasks, spot the filter edits tasks, literacy tasks and much more.
All editable, will last one hour, suitable for new 2026 RSHE guidelines.
