In this world, with all the technology available to our students, one might begin to ponder, "There's a lot out there. A vast majority of incredible tools and information. But there are a lot of areas in which our kids could make mistakes." This is where digital citizenship comes into play. What is digital citizenship? "A digital citizen is someone who exhibits good character and is safe, respectful and responsible online to themselves and others." CommonSenseMedia.org provides a variety of information for parents in regards to reviews on movies, apps, websites, and so much more. Another useful site for parents is DigitalED.site.portageps.org which is managed by the Portage Public Schools Technology Department. They pull a lot of information from Common Sense Media as well. |
