Love the term given to this topic! As with most I didn't think about it this way.
Would love to add in this unit on digital citizenship and cyberbullying with my fourth and fifth graders. I don't think they realize what they are doing online and these few lessons are real eye openers! We talk a little about it, but more on how to use resources. This would really open their eyes to what they are doing, saying and writing when online.
I liked the scope and sequence on this site. Commonsense Media has a nice array of technology skills as well and ones dedicated to our topic. There is also a neat online passport which is free which might be a fun way to teach the kids. A fun thing to use as the school year closes when we aren't doing a lot of book check out and there is more time to discuss.
Loved this activity about blogging with pen and paper before going online! Very cool what for the kids to see and physically understand how it all works! This would be a great opener when introducing blogs and blogging.
Just sat in on a meeting where one of the topics was cyberbullying and digital citizenship. I am really going to try to squeeze in a few lessons with the first curriculum mentioned in June before they go home for the summer and spend endless time online. I hope it will be an eye-opener and they will think twice before posting anything.
