This bookmark is about how hidden curriculum is a skill that everyone must learn on there own. It cant be taught it has to be observed and learned that way. "Richard Lavoie described the hidden curriculum as important social skills that everyone knows but no one is taught. This includes assumed rules, adult or student expectations, idioms, and metaphors. Understanding the hidden curriculum is difficult for everyone, but it is especially so when compounded with a deficit in social interactions."

this a very well written guide for teaching awareness

In our rapidly changing society, an urgent need exists for schools to address and infuse global awareness into curriculum instruction. Students are increasingly confronted with many issues that require a global education focus. According to Kirkwood (2001), these students will face a new world order thereby creating a need to acquire a global education.

I'm finding that my students, just like me, are not using the full power of the Google search engine. We search and click on the first few results, taking the information as valid and relevant. These lessons explain how Google works and how to get better results. I plan to incorporate this into my Digiteen curriculum.

It is all very well to provide resources to learn about digital citizenship, but the BEST way for students to learn is to actually be online connecting and collaborating with others globally. This is where the Digiteen Project is SO powerful. It not only uses resources such as this one, but gets students putting expectations into practice. http://digiteen.org
