Tool #10 - Underneath it All - Digital Citizenship

Things that I would want to make sure my students understand are that they are

responsible for all postings and how those may affect others, just because it is a website does not mean it is necessarily a reliable source, and learning with technology does not take away from the learning done without technology.

One of the resources that I plan to use instructionally is discuss digital citizenship

topics relating to plagiarism email, harassment.

I think the best way to emphasize the idea of digital citizenship to the students is to have a contract for students and parents to sign so they are aware of the rules and guidelines that must be followed.

There should be a student contract for students and parents so that rules and guidelines are understood and followed.
