Back to School: digital citizenship in the classroom

This is a topic we cannot discuss enough.  Teachers should talk about it - parents should talk about it - students should talk about it...

DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP

Students: On September 15th and 16th I will be doing a presentation for all middle school students on appropriate use of Internet tools and social networking.  What makes a good online citizen? How harmful can bullying be on the Internet?  What happens if I post something on the web that is inappropriate or downright harmful to others?

Parents: October 12th I will be presenting Internet Safety to you at teh PTA meeting.  Please come and please feel free to bring others!

Teachers: Always take every opportunity to stress safety during research projects, online games, etc!
