Tool # 11 Practicing Good Digital Citizenship

I would teach the above tool through the showing of 3 videos on Brainpop, Cyberbullying, Digital Etiquette and Digital Citizenship.
It is important that students keep their passwords secret so that others cannot send emails using their identities. Also, students need to know how to send emails and who to send emails and the appropriate language for email messages or on-line conversations.
Regarding Cyperbullying, students must be made aware that they cannot be threatened or bullied in any way via email.
Students need to be cognizant that people can lie about their age and act like they are young children when in reality they may be adult predators.
In addition, students need to understand the punctuation to use for different comments and that using capital letters can mean shouting.
As their teacher I will be monitoring all of their on-line communication to ensure that it is within appropriate guidelines.
