Sumario:In recent years, there's been increasing concern over potential negative experiences for adolescents on social media. Despite efforts in social media literacy education, traditional approaches often neglect crucial affective structures necessary for well-being and resilience in this context. This doctoral thesis introduces the concept of Social Media Self-Protection Skills (SMSPS), aiming to connect social media literacy with emotional competencies. The thesis explores various learning strategies to acquire SMSPS and proposes an authentic learning environment equipped with narratives, self-reflection and computer-supported collaborative learning activities. Beyond the platform's development, this thesis addresses limitations in current methodologies by proposing scripting mechanisms to overcome them. Using a design-based research methodology, this work iteratively refines an educational social media platform through user feedback, design refinements, and real-world evaluation studies. Results include design artifacts, societal outputs, and design principles informing future educational social media platforms for fostering SMSPS.
