Digital Citizenship Resources
Safety Resources for web
Kids
helpline has an incredible amount of information in regard to web safety. How to be safe, what is safe and unsafe,
acceptable and unacceptable communication, privacy, cyber bullying, sexting and
so on. It also has teacher resources and
activities about staying safe online and lesson plans for years 3-6, 7-9 and
10-12. The "Cyber Sin Movie" is well worth having a
look at, I think it is great for teens to watch. It certainly sent tears to my eyes.

Responsible use of web
Education
World website gives a detailed description, lesson plans and boosters about
responsible and ethical citizenship on the web.
“Think
before you send” is a guide to open student discussion about personal
information, photos, what is and isn’t appropriate to post and privacy issues.
Digital literacy encourages student discussion about authentic court cases and
considering their conclusions, understanding legal consequences, netiquette, implications
for online behaviour and cyber ethics.
These lesson plans could easily result to you creating your own
classroom rules and regulations to responsible, ethical and safe use of the
web.http://www.educationworld.com/a_tech/responsible-student-technology-use.shtml
The Socrates
Institute has a cyber ethics project which creates awareness on safety, legal
and ethical use of the internet for K-12.
The class lessons involve real case studies of juvenile cybercrimes such
as hacking, piracy, cyber bullying and illegal downloads, a role-play game
called “what-if?” which is based on different scenarios that students are given
in groups or pairs and they need to discuss the related cybercrime, take on the
character roles (i.e.: cyber-criminal, victim, authority) and perform the roles
to the class and finally discuss with the students of “What can parents do
about cybercrime?” the have the students perform various “what if?”
scenarios. I love this idea of
interconnecting technology and performing arts.
The beauty of Technology and the Arts is that they so easily integrate
into all subjects and can be used to implement practical learning.
