Digital Citizenship
Digital Citizenship is the concept of educating students (and all technology users) about how to use technology appropriately. This involves using technology effectively and not mis using it to disadvantage others. Digital Citizenship consists of numerous themes including appropriate online etiquette, literacy in how digital technology
works and how to use it, an understanding of ethics and the law as it relates to technology, knowing how to stay safe online, and advice on health issues relating to the use of technology.
Digital Citizenship education brings together these themes and provides a framework for schools and parents to educate students about their rights and responsibilities when interacting with other people through digital technology. It begins the first time they interact with online technology, such as the first time they use the internet, send an email or text message, or sign on to an game service.
