Digital citizenship refers to the responsible use of technology and the internet. It involves understanding how to behave safely and respectfully online. Just like in real life, we need to treat others kindly and make good choices when we are using devices like computers, tablets, or smartphones. This week, we will learn how to be good digital citizens.
Let's consider a scenario: You receive a message from someone you don't know asking for your personal information. What should you do? First, you should never share personal information with strangers online. Instead, tell a trusted adult about the message. This example shows how to stay safe and make healthy choices online.
In pairs, students will role-play different online interactions. One student will act as a person sending a message, and the other will respond. For example, one might say something kind, while the other responds positively. After each role-play, we will discuss how it felt to communicate respectfully and why it is important to treat others well online.
Each student will reflect on their online habits and write down one goal they want to achieve regarding their digital citizenship. For instance, a student might choose to be more careful about what they share online or to always tell an adult if they see something upsetting. After writing their goals, students can share them with the class if they feel comfortable.
