Digital Citizenship
It comes as no surprise to learn that technology is changing faster than we can keep up with it. With the increasing use of technology, students are taught about responsible online behavior, digital privacy, and the ethical use of technology. This is crucial for navigating the digital world safely.
Educator Heather Marrs wrote, “Digital citizenship is a key skill for living and working in a connected world. And if students don’t authentically learn this important skill set, it will be just another abstract idea that becomes real only when they run into problems down the road.” If students are learning about rapidly changing technology, then they have to learn to keep up with it. They also need to focus on risk factors and navigating the treacherous terrain of technology (ISTE).
