What exactly is Digital Citizenship, and how important is it for me to teach? In this course,
we're going to address the elements of Digital Citizenship and how important it is for every
teacher to address these with their students, regardless of age. That's right, Rich. Years
ago, this wasn't even on our radar as educators, but now it's something we can't ignore. Digital
Citizenship is about appropriate and responsible behavior that students and adults need to
practice when using technology. In this episode, we are going to cover communication, literacy,
etiquette, digital law, rights and responsibilities, health and wellness, and commerce. There is
a lot to cover, and there are some great resources available to help you implement a program
in your school or classroom. We will include some links in our handout downloads, located
in the description of each episode. Every educator has an important role to play in
informing students and parents about Digital Citizenship, no matter what the grade. Feel
free to watch these episodes in any order and pause at any time. Get started today with
the tips from this course to make a difference in your students' lives.
