Digital Citizenship


What is Digital Citizenship?

Digital Citizenship is all about using media in a responsible, ethical, safe, and effective way.

Why teaching Digital Citizenship?

Because it helps students...

  • explore the impact of digital media on their lives and communities. (Participation)
  • learn about the impact of their digital footprints. (Privacy)
  • learn skills to deal with negative behaviours, such as cyberbullying.  (Credibility)
  • think critically about their online identities. (Identity)
  • respect creative work. (Authorship/Ownership)
With the growing influence of social media on employee recruitment, it is a teachers' responsability to ensure their students are aware of their digital footprint. So, how to prepare students for the future?
