Do we still feel the same about others and their
technology use? Do we think about ours?
Do we try to do too much at one time (multitasking)?
Are we sharing more information than we
should (Facebook, Twitter, etc.)?
Where will be in another five years?

“what it means to be a citizen in the
Digital Age”
Cable in the Classroom
Digital Citizenship is a holistic and positive approach to helping children learn how
to be safe and secure, as well as smart and effective participants in a digital
world. That means helping them understand their rights and responsibilities,
recognize the benefits and risks, and realize the personal and ethical implications
of their actions.

It is often brought up by students (and other
users) that if we have the ability we should be
able to use resources?
Does this hold true in other parts of our lives?
Should our “Digital Citizenship” be any
different than our country citizenship?
Let’s take a look at some ideas/issues.
SIMILARITIES

Both deal with one
person taking attacking
another psychologically.

both through

Both can continue after
school as well.
DIFFERENCES

people feel anonymous.
Technology can involve
a larger number of
people.

have a physical aspect
as well.

appropriately. We will work with others to
identify the needs of technology users and
provide opportunities to make them effective.
