Learning objective: Students apply the correct sequence of steps for responding to and reporting a harmful online experience.

Purpose: Show a step-by-step response path for online harm, every node clickable.

Visual style: Flowchart, process rectangles in sequence, one branch point.

Steps: 1) Start — "Something online feels wrong or hurtful"; 2) "Do not respond or engage"; 3) "Take a screenshot"; 4) "Block the account"; 5) Decision — "Is the content against the app's rules?"; 6a) if yes, "Use the app's Report tool"; 6b) "Tell a trusted adult"; 7) End — "Trusted adult helps decide next steps." Each node's click reveals a one-sentence explanation (e.g., screenshot node: "Preserves proof, even if the other person deletes it").

Color coding: Blue for personal actions, yellow for the decision diamond, green for reporting/adult steps.

Implementation: Mermaid flowchart with a `click` directive on every node opening an infobox.
