Digital Citizenship
It is so important as parents and educators that we teach our children to be responsible and safe when using the internet. They need to know that if they come across a website they are unsure of or know is inappropriate they need to tell the teacher or parent asap. They also need to be aware of strangers on the internet. That while communicating with other people can be a great way to learn and make new friends they can only chat and visit those websites with adult supervision. We also need to teach students to use kind and respectful words while on the computer. The expectations we have in the classroom are also the expectations while communicating in cyber space. Cyber bullying is very real and has had devastating consequences on young people who have been targeted. It is important to do everything we can to prevent this from happening.
