Digital Citizenship Week 2015
Resources and Support for starting the conversation
Celebrating Digital Citizenship at Titan Hill
It's Digital Citizenship Week!
Although our conversations about digital citizenship and being digital leaders need to be happening all year, Josh and I thought this would be a wonderful opportunity to begin the conversations in your classrooms.
What do teachers need to know about Digital Citizenship?
So what are we asking you to do with your students?
To support your efforts to begin these conversations with your students, Josh and I have gathered some videos and activities we’d like you to show, do and discuss with your students.
I've included three different videos that cover various aspects of Digital Citizenship. The first is an introduction to digital citizenship; the second is 5 Facts/Suggests of how to practice positive digital citizenship; and the third is 5 ways to leave a positive digital footprint. All three videos are less than 2 minutes. During this next week. please view and discuss these videos with your students.
You will also find copies of a Digital Citizenship Pledge and coloring page in your mailbox. After viewing the videos and discussing with your students, please have your students talk about and decorate the pledge. There are two spots where they can add information your class might have discussed. This pledge comes from Common Sense Media, the resource I use with the students during library time. As we continue focusing on digital citizenship throughout the year, we will continue to support your conversations with your students with some great resources such as learning.com (more information to come).
So when am I supposed to do this?
