Students Should be Taught to be Digital Leaders Instead of Digital Citizens - The Tech ... - 0 views

  • Digital leaders do more than consume information. They synthesize learning and use it in collaborative environments. Digital leaders are dynamic change agents who transform the status quo, facilitate better communication and understanding, and integrate a variety of technology tools in their lives.

Digital Citizenship - 0 views

  • Digital Citizenship
  • is a way to prepare students/technology users for a society full of technology. Digital citizenship is the norms of appropriate, responsible technology use.
  • Whether it is called digital citizenship, digital wellness or digital ethics the issues are the same; how should we act when we are online, and what should be taught to the next generation.  With the growth of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) and 1:1 initiatives in schools there is a need to talk about responsible use of technology

    All about students and digital citizenship.

You know the difference between things like a tweet and a DM. You know how to do a digital assessment. You’re a sound judge of the quality of information, apps, and tools.

How to Take Digital Citizenship Schoolwide During the 2016-17 School Year | EdSurge News - 0 views

  • Clear Institution-Wide Communication
  • All stakeholders must have a clear understanding of both the “why” and the “how” of fully integrated digital citizenship.
  • professional development

  • Digital Citizenship PD
  • highlighted their lessons that were shining examples.
  • In-Person PD
  • During these meetings, challenges will pop up.
  • talk with these teachers about how they have seen technology both and help and hinder their students’ learning. Many discovered they are already teaching digital citizenship and this new integrated model would just help them do it more intentionally and with our new common vocabulary
  • Follow-up
  • Teachers shouldn’t be the only, or even the first, people that students hear from about digital citizenship
  • Make sure teachers feel supported as they roll out their lessons.
  • Students need to know that it is part of a larger culture shift, and not just a one-year initiative
  • Make sure that school counselors have participated in digital citizenship education like their teacher counterparts so they are prepared to talk with parents and students. Continue offering resources, webinars, and in-person presentations for parents so they feel supported and empowered to talk to their students about when and how they are using technology.
  • Agree on the digital citizenship goals, share your vision, train your teachers, and follow-through by continuing to support all stakeholders

The Promise of Schools as Digital Citizenship Hubs - Connected Learning Alliance - 0 views

  • Surveys from over a thousand K-12 teachers suggest that 60% of teachers used a digital citizenship resource or curriculum in 2019, but this statistic does not speak to how often teachers were able to talk about digital citizenship over the course of the year (once a week, once a month, once a year?).
    • kellyenterline
       
      Though I do some digital citizenship lessons in my library class, I am realizing that I am not even aware of which teachers also cover some of this in their classrooms. I am realizing that I need to make this more of a partnership between what I am doing and what the teachers are doing by starting this conversation.

      Students take owernship in their learning if technology is naturally part of their learning experience.
  • f you want to know if your students grasp enough of a particular concept before you move on, you can use tools such as Poll Everywhere, Socrative, or Mentimeter to get a quick snapshot of the class.
  • In addition, Evernote is a powerful note-taking tool that can be accessed through any Internet-enabled device through a web browser or the mobile app. It allows users to record audio notes, and it can be a great way to provide personalized feedback to students.
  • Our students are constantly immersed in technology, yet that does not mean that they know how to use it for learning. We also cannot assume that they know how to use it responsibly either.
  • we must take the time to explicitly teach about cyberbullying, copyright, plagiarism, digital footprint, and proper conduct online.
  • It is worth your time to spend some time early in the year setting expectations for online conduct, use of information found online, and staying safe when using digital tools. For more on teaching digital citizenship, you can visit BrainPOP, Common Sense Media, or Edutopia's Digital Citizenship Resource Roundup.

The Path to Digital Citizenship | Edutopia - 0 views

  • oday's networked world gives everyone a voice, a digital space, a bullhorn to be heard. While this freedom of expression is nothing new to our society, the medium is taking us into uncharted territory.
  • One of the key issues is teaching kids offline before they jump into an online world. They need to know the harsh realities of a networked world, to discern between their real offline personality and tailored online personality, and to understand that both personalities should be the same.
  • They still need to know how to play nicely together, share, not tease or say hurtful things -- and they need to transfer these offline skills to a digital space as well.

  • Have students create something on a large easel paper (a drawing, poem, short sentence, etc.). Once completed, ask them walk around the room as if they were in a museum and make comments on each creation. This is a great way of having students comment in public and provide authentic feedback that is constructive and not hurtful.
  • Generate safe usernames Discuss the difference between personal and private information Explain why there are logins and passwords for some hardware, software and websites Describe why stealing information and other people's creations is the same as stealing tangible items Use technology to explore personal interests Demonstrate to others how to use technology tools in ways that assist rather than prevent learning

Transforming Education with Technology - 1 views

  • In addition to addressing the digital divide, we need to address the pedagogical divide.
  • online connected communities of practice where people can grapple with a problem together, share what they have learned, develop a solution together, and connect with experts who can provide research, information, and strategies.
  • The challenge for teachers is to understand the opportunities new technology provides

  • I think that digital literacy has three parts. The first is the ability to use information well—to find it, consume it, analyze it, and leverage it to solve a problem. The second part of digital literacy is the ability to use media and digital technologies to communicate and collaborate effectively.
  • Third, and arguably the least understood, is the development of digital citizenship
