Digital citizenship refers to the responsible use of technology and the internet. It means being respectful to others online, just as we are in person. This includes understanding how to communicate politely, protecting our personal information, and knowing how to behave when using devices like tablets and computers.
Let's consider a scenario: You see a friend being teased in a chat room. What should you do? Discuss with the class. The right choice is to support your friend and report the behavior to an adult. This shows respect and kindness, which are key parts of being a good digital citizen.
In pairs, students will role-play different online situations. One student will act as a person using a device, while the other will be a friend. They will practice how to respond respectfully to negative comments or how to share something positive. After each role-play, the class will discuss what was done well and what could be improved.
Each student will write down one goal related to digital citizenship. This could be something like 'I will only use my tablet for one hour a day' or 'I will always be kind when I chat online.' They will share their goals with a partner and discuss how they can achieve them.
