Tool 11: Digital Citizenship

The Frayer model for Digital Citizenship is a great visual with Student and the four areas of digital awareness; safety, literacy, learning strategies and etiquette.

• The comment regarding students grabbing the first piece they read and using it as gospel is so accurate as I find myself having done that back when. It is vital we model the "how to find" and "how to evaluate the accuracy of" a piece of information to our students. Time is always at an essence and we do just want to complete the assignment.
• Safety is a huge issue. There is access to so much on the web that one can easily find themselves where there is no value.
• As we say"It takes a village to raise a child" so it goes with the world of technology. It takes everyone, teachers, parents, mentors, tutors,...to keep digital citizenship at the core of technology practices.
