Digital citizenship refers to the responsible and ethical use of technology. It involves understanding how to interact positively with others online, protecting personal information, and making safe choices while using the internet. Just like in the real world, we need to treat others with respect and kindness in the digital world.
Let's consider a scenario: You receive a message from someone you don’t know asking for your personal information. What should you do? In this case, the best choice is to ignore the message and tell a trusted adult. This example shows how to protect yourself online and make safe choices.
In pairs, students will role-play different online situations. One student will act as a person sending a message, while the other will respond. Scenarios can include receiving a compliment, dealing with a rude comment, or being asked to share personal information. After each role-play, discuss as a class how to respond respectfully and safely.
Each student will write down one goal related to their digital behavior. For example, a goal could be to always ask a parent before downloading an app or to treat others kindly in online games. Students will share their goals with a partner and discuss how they plan to achieve them.
