Perhaps Richard Culatta, CEO of ISTE, said it best in his passionate plea to #ISTE18 attendees at the opening keynote in Chicago! “Digital citizenship, it turns out, is not a list of ‘don’ts’ but a list of ‘dos’,” Richard Culatta says. “And never has it been more important than it is now.”
What was once seen as an optional topic to “check off the list” during advisory period or during back-to-school season, Digital Citizenship is now an essential element of the fiber of a good school. The latest research by Pew Internet identify that 54% of students realize that they are spending too much time on their Smartphones. In this same research 7 in 10 parents believe that their child is distracted by their cellphones. Having an understanding of the issue is a beginning but we need to educate students early to these issues and how to address them. This is where Digital Citizenship can help.
The focus of this session looks at Digital Citizenship through the lens of instructional activities and strategies to be woven into the everyday classroom. The goal of any good educational program today is how it can be embedded into the curriculum to support the course without increasing the workload for the educator. This session goes beyond recognizing that Digital Citizenship is an important addition in the classroom, and offers strategies for seamlessly infusing it into the instructional day. Anchored on rigorous research and thought leadership from working with educators in the field and a decade worth of referenced and reinforced themes, including updated strategies of the nine elements of Digital Citizenship, this session will challenge your thinking! It will also examine opportunities within the classroom for implementation of technologies both for the student and the teacher.
Come prepared to engage at a very hands-on level too, as this BYOD session will pull in digital tools provided by BrainPOP, Common Sense Education and the Digital Driver’s License allows attendees to go from the theory of digital citizenship to a more practical reality of teaching it in the everyday classroom. The session will go beyond the discovery of digital content to empowering students to create their own digital content to show how they’ve internalized the themes and importance of digital citizenship including the opportunity to create their own movies, text- and block-based coding projects, and personalized concept maps Attendees will also leave with access to a newly released white paper on the need for digital citizenship to help students advance in the classroom.
This session intentionally includes a combination of whole and small group dialogue with ample opportunities to take advantage of the BYOD session format.
