    "Kids today seem to be born knowing how to use technology, but they don't automatically understand responsible online behaviour. It's a new challenge parents face - teaching children how to be good digital citizens; how to use technology safely and responsibly, and how to evaluate, manage and use the information and tools they find online. Here are eight areas of digital citizenship that parents may consider and discuss with their children."

Open Thinking Wiki: Digital Citizenship - 1 views

  •  
    "This is a collection of resources that can be used by educators or students regarding the issue of digital citizenship. Note: the questions used here are targeted primarily at high school students, but many of these questions apply to anyone new to the topic. Definitions: "Digital citizenship isn't just about recognising and dealing with online hazards. It's about building safe spaces and communities, understanding how to manage personal information, and about being internet savvy - using your online presence to grow and shape your world in a safe, creative way, and inspiring others to do the same." (Digizen) "A fully literate citizen is at once critically self-reflexive and critically reflexive of his/her collective and position within it." (Spooner, 2007)"

Cool Cat Teacher Blog: The Case for Digital Citizenship in Schools - 0 views

  •  
    "That is why I think effective digital citizenship education is done WHILE students are using educational networks (social networks for education) and cell phones. In fact, that is why we founded Digiteen and spun it off as a nonprofit - because we felt like the kids who came in to Flat Classroom weren't ready because they were clueless about managing their personal identity in safe, wise ways!"

Teaching the Facebook generation - for once the media gets it right! - 1 views

  • today's teachers are finding it harder to keep their distance
  • For each new arm of social media that opens up, so do new dilemmas for teachers, students and parents
  • Most teachers and schools have had to wise up quickly to cope with the rapid and massive uptake of Facebook and mobile technology in the past 10 years
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • Some educators say the social-media bans in schools are overkill and privacy fears have overshadowed the positive educational opportunities social media can offer students.
  • It is known, too, that students also access social-networking sites and post to them during class time via mobile phones or by circumventing the network blocks.
  • ''Ineffective policy is to ban use; prohibition has never worked,''
  • doesn't matter how impoverished a young person may be, they will have access to social networks daily, they find ways to get online through public libraries, internet cafes, at their friend's house or on their mobile
  • Common advice for teachers is to be familiar with privacy settings on social-networking sites, perhaps maintain a private and professional account (although this is not permitted on Facebook) and to set a search-engine alert for their own name, so adverse mentions can be detected early and dealt with.
  • So can, or should, a teacher be Facebook friends with a student?

    "Schools have had to act fast to try to manage the widespread use of Facebook and other social media by students and teachers"

Expert insights into education for positive digital footprint development - 1 views

  •  
    Abstract: Children and young people are spending more time online. Face-to-face interactions with friends are being supplemented with digital communication. Australian children are particularly prolific users of the internet (Green et al, 2011). This online activity creates digital footprints. Digital footprint refers to the information and data that people generate, through purposive action or passive recording, when they go online (Thatcher, 2014). Digital footprints now play a role in people's employment and educational opportunities (Black and Johnson, 2010). In this context not having a digital footprint can be as serious as having a badly managed one. One way to address this is for schools to explicitly teach students how to develop positive digital footprints that will help, rather than hinder, them in the future.

    GenYes and TechYes - new website looks great! Student leaders providing solution for technology use within schools to support project-based learning, tech integration.
  •  
    It would be great to see students involved in planning and managing how technology should be used in their learning. Young people already have many of the skills needed to use new technologies. They would be no doubt enthusiastic about being taking a leading role in how these would be used in their learning.

Cyber-safety skills urged for kids entering digital schoolyard - Media Announcement - A... - 0 views

  • Australian parents have spent up big equipping their kids with the latest gadgets ahead of the new school year but many have failed to equip them with cyber-skills new Telstra research has revealed. More than a third of Australian parents surveyed with children aged 10 to 17 will send a child to school this year with both a laptop computer and a mobile phone. The research, however, revealed that many of these parents haven’t set aside time to talk to their kids about cyber-safety issues such as protecting their privacy and managing approaches from cyber-bullies.

World Without Walls: Learning Well with Others | Edutopia - 6 views

    • Benita Van Der Wel
       
      Important note about whether we actually do students a disservice by supposedly sheltering them from the big, bad online world, or whether we miss a valuable learning opportunity to help them learn how to use the resources effectively, efficiently and safely.
    • Benita Van Der Wel
       
      Highlights exactly what 21C learning is all about.
  • the work we create and publish is assessed by the value it brings to the people who read it, reply to it, and remix it

      Digital posting are assessed by their worth, by what they bring to others (good or bad). What a radical new way of assessing material !!

  • In fact, we need to rely on trusted members of our personal networks to help sift through the sea of stuff, locating and sharing with us the most relevant, interesting, useful bits. And we have to work together to organize it all, as long-held taxonomies of knowledge give way to a highly personalized information environment.
    • nicollebrigden
       
      Sounds like the role of the TL to me.
  • But it does suggest that we as educators need to reconsider our roles in students' lives, to think of ourselves as connectors first and content experts second.
    • nicollebrigden
       
      The classroom teacher as guide on side rather than sage on stage.
  • Who is this person? What are her passions? What are her credentials? What can I learn from her?
    • nicollebrigden
       
      Just like they should authenticate a website, students should verify the quality of an online learning partner.
  • How do we manage our digital footprints, or our identities, in a world where we are a Google search away from both partners and predators? What are the ethics of co-creation when the nuances of copyright and intellectual property become grayer each day? When connecting and publishing are so easy, and so much of what we see is amateurish and inane, how do we ensure that what we create with others is of high quality?

      All worthy questions.

Digital Learning: What to Know in 2020 | Schoology - 5 views

  • Digital learning is meant to enhance learning, not simply continue it via a digital means.
  • The reason being the LMS is not just another tool; it often represents a cultural shift
  • 97% of which were from the United States
  • ...30 more annotations...
  • The data clearly reveals that our respondents overwhelmingly agree that digital learning positively impacts students and teachers.
  • In short, digital learning can enhance learning experiences, save teachers time, enable teachers to better tailor learning to student needs, aid in tracking student progress, provide transparency into the learning process for all stakeholders, and much more.
  • we’ve identified 10 key insights from our survey that provide some clarity into the current state of digital learning.
  • professional development.
  • digital citizenship programs
  • helping to address internet safety issues—teacher’s #1 digital citizenship concern.
  • Twitter
  • professionally
  • earning management system (LMS)
  • Both personalized and individualized learning are considered to be the most effective types of differentiated learning.
  • Social Media
  • debate about the role of mobile devices in the classroom rages
  • winner
  • emerging
  • mobile devices are being incorporated into digital learning more frequently than ever
  • Obstacles
  • lack of a digitized curriculum,
  • ineffective professional development and a lack of parent involvement
  • lack of parental involvement or understanding as a challenge has jumped from the #7 challenge all the way to #3
  • Digital learning takes many forms—from barely blended learning to gamified, mastery learning
  • Schoology conducted a landmark K-12 study called The State of Digital Learning.
  • As you can see, their #1 challenge is providing relevant and effective PD.
  • Many education professionals agree that ongoing instructional coaching is one of the most effective forms of professional development.
  • This year, we’re excited that nearly 70% of respondents now use the same LMS for professional development as in the classroom
  • I
  • nterestingly, schools and districts in which LMS usage is mandated are the most effective at enabling collaboration.
  • The data that comes to mind is the fact the majority of PD isn't modeling instructional best practices and that has to change.
  • From personalized learning to social media and coding in the classroom, the education landscape is being fertilized by technology and will continue to grow.
  • In fact, the data suggests that merely providing students with access to devices doesn't necessarily lead to better outcomes. But the thoughtful integration of technology to enable students to actively engage with ideas and their peers does enhance the learning experience. It's a nuanced and strategic challenge that grapples with countless tangible and abstract variables—devices, software, classroom practices, professional development, and collaboration among the many stakeholders just to name a few.

    A recent article by Lauren Davis in the Schoology (LMS) website that unpacks a survey of 16000+, mostly USA teachers, about the impact of digital learning. It includes some interesting insights into enablers and barriers for DLE. A good starting point for the 523 Assessment 3 environmental scan.
