Why Teaching Digital Citizenship Doesn't Work | Looking Up - 0 views
-
Students who behave inappropriately in digital spaces misinterpret the digital space as private, when it is, of course, public. This misunderstanding leads students to believe that the regular rules of public behavior don’t apply in digital space, and so they behave in ways online that they never would in public. The fundamental error is in thinking that digital spaces are different, with different rules from the real world. They aren’t.
-
They don’t need a new set of rules, just to apply the rules they already know to their digital behavior.
-
Students don’t need more rules; they just need to apply the ones they’ve already got. The same ones they learned in kindergarten.
