My Voice is Louder Than Hate is a multimedia lesson resource designed to empower students in Grades 9 to 12 to push back against hate and prejudice in their online communities. Over the course of this program, students will: learn how to push back when they encounter hate or prejudice online; develop digital and media literacy skills to recognize and confront hate material online; and, prepare to take action as digital citizens by taking an active role in forming the norms and values of their offline communities and using digital and media tools for civic action online and offline.

This program consists of four elements: an online multimedia platform that includes learning resources, practice scenarios and tools for media-making; two lessons that use the different features of the multimedia platform to educate and empower students to respond to hate and prejudice online; a training workshop to prepare teachers to deliver these lessons; and a teacher's guide, which provides teachers with background information and resources to use in implementing the program.

The self-directed workshop helps to prepare teachers to deliver the My Voice is Louder Than Hate lessons and deal with any difficult conversations that may take place as a result.

The teacher's guide provides an expanded discussion of topics such as online hate, casual prejudice, dehumanization and digital citizenship and detailed instructions on how to present the My Voice is Louder Than Hate lessons in a way that will be emotionally safe for students.

Lesson Series

The My Voice is Louder Than Hate online multimedia tool consists of five elements:

The hub introduces the tool and provides links to the other four areas.

The experiences section lets students watch videos about experiencing and pushing back against online prejudice.

The learning spoke provides students with interactive multimedia tip sheets that provide key information on different aspects of dealing with online prejudice.

The story spoke lets students play through a series of short scenarios where they witness casual prejudice and hate speech in a variety of contexts.

The sharing spoke gives students the chance to respond to prejudice and share their own experiences with two media-making tools, a digital storytelling tool that lets students combine images, text, music and narration to make digital stories, and a meme maker tool that lets students make image macro memes that they can use to respond to prejudice in a light-hearted way.

In this lesson, students explore how interacting through digital media can make it easier to hurt someone's feelings and can make hurtful or prejudiced behaviour seem normal in online spaces. They learn how Canadian youth feel about and respond to casual prejudice online and then use the My Voice is Louder Than Hate tool to create a digital story that will help people understand that online hate hurts everyone who witnesses it.

In this lesson, students explore the benefits and drawbacks of being "full citizens" online. They learn reasons why Canadian youth sometimes do not push back when they witness casual prejudice online and then use the My Voice is Louder Than Hate tool to practice different ways of responding. Finally, students analyze memes as a medium and a way of responding to hate or other hurtful behaviour online and then use the My Voice is Louder Than Hate tool to create a meme that they can use to push back against causal prejudice.
The My Voice is Louder Than Hate program was made possible with financial contributions from Public Safety Canada's Community Resilience Fund.

As many parts of the U.S. and world continue with distance learning because of the coronavirus pandemic, setting expectations for this new way of teaching and learning is essential. It's important to remember that even if students are comfortable with technology, learning online requires its own norms and procedures, many of which will be new to students who are used to learning in a face-to-face classroom.

In addition, teachers and students alike are spending more time checking news and social media in an effort to understand the coronavirus and its effects. Now more than ever, students need key digital citizenship skills, including news and media literacy, the ability to recognize and respond to cyberbullying, and an understanding of how their media habits affect them.

To help you establish a culture of digital citizenship for distance learning, we've collected our most relevant digital citizenship lessons for this moment. The lesson plans listed here are all available for free as part of Common Sense Education's K-12 Digital Citizenship Curriculum. If you're able to share resources with your students, you can assign our lessons using Google Classroom, download student activity sheets and send them as virtual activities to students, or share links to our videos with your students (lessons with videos are noted with an *).

Short on time? Check out our quick digital citizenship activities: discussion-based activities that take only 15 minutes. These are available on every lesson with a video (noted below with an *).

We hope these resources are helpful to you during this challenging time.

Online Communication

As you set up the communication channels for your virtual classroom, it's important for students to understand the norms and expectations for online communication. They may be used to texting or chatting with friends on social media, but how they interact in the online school setting will be different. Help them learn what to do if they encounter hurtful language online, how to switch their communication style based on the setting, and ways to debate and communicate with civility.

*The Power of Words (Grade 3): Focus on social and emotional learning as you help students learn how to process their feelings when they see or read something online.

*Digital Drama Unplugged (Grade 6): Students can learn how digital drama develops and how to de-escalate contentious situations.

Connecting with Digital Audiences (Grade 11): Help high school students rethink how they use their devices as they transition to a virtual learning environment. Students think about how they should adjust the way they communicate with one another as well as how they use their devices depending on the setting.

*We Are Civil Communicators (Grade 12): This lesson helps students identify the best ways to meaningfully and respectfully engage in online discussions.

News & Media Literacy

For many students, the coronavirus pandemic has them worried. While there is reason for concern, some of their anxiety stems from incomplete or incorrect information they're seeing on social media. Now is an important time to help them build critical thinking skills so that they can identify what information is credible and what isn't. Use these lessons to support news and media literacy:

Finding Credible News (Grade 6): Help students differentiate real news articles from misleading ones.

This Just In! (Grade 8): When breaking news happens, information may not always be accurate. Students can learn the importance of stopping, thinking, and reflecting on what we see in breaking news.

Hoaxes and Fakes (Grade 9): Help students ask critical questions when they encounter information online, and decide which sources are credible and which are not.

Media Balance

When school happens online in addition to kids' already-busy online social lives, they may start to feel like they're staring at a screen 24/7. Talk with students about how much time they're spending on devices and help them reflect on how their media use makes them feel. Try these supporting lessons:

*Finding My Media Balance (Grade 5): Students out of school, staying home, may be using more media than ever. Plus, the bombardment of news media can be overwhelming. This lesson helps students think through what their own media balance should include, for their own well-being.

Social Media and How You Feel (Grade 10): Social media plays a big role in most teens' lives, and research shows that it causes intense feelings -- both positive and negative. This lesson helps teens think through how social media use is making them feel, and come up with a plan for more beneficial use.

Cyberbullying

Some students might witness or be the target of cyberbullying based on misconceptions about COVID-19. It's important for educators to teach students how to identify, respond to, and avoid cyberbullying. In addition, when you address what is and isn't acceptable online behavior, you promote a positive and safe learning environment for your students.

Putting a STOP to Online Meanness (Grade 2): Focus on social and emotional skills as you help younger students process mean behaviors or actions they witness online.

Upstanders and Allies: Taking Action Against Cyberbullying (Grade 7): This lesson prepares students to respond to situations that involve cyberbullying by encouraging them to be upstanders.

Responding to Online Hate Speech (Grade 8): Students likely encounter a lot of negative content, fear, and even hate of others online and on social media. Students will learn to identify online hate speech, and define specific actions they can take to positively impact a situation involving hate speech.

*Countering Hate Speech Online (Grade 10): Students can learn to understand the connection between xenophobia and online hate speech. Students analyze how the internet can contribute to the spread of xenophobia, and develop strategies to combat hate speech.

Use these short, self-guided digital citizenship activities and create a positive culture around digital learning.

Get teens talking about real issues they've encountered online -- from media addiction to hate speech.

Get customizable planning calendars and student activity sheets to make digital citizenship part of your teaching.

Blog post by Kristen Mattson where she explains how to use the Digital Citizenship Discussion Cards.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
You can create a safe space for your students to engage in conversation about digital topics with though-provoking images and a variety of activities.

Students of all ages can use the image/discussion cards I've created in a variety of ways.

Asking students to group images and assign groups a label will force them to engage in discussion and analysis of the artwork in front of them. The questions on the back of the image cards can make great journal prompts, debate topics, and launches for research and inquiry projects.

For more ideas, check out this post on using images as bell ringers across the content areas.

You can also create your own digital citizenship discussion activities using the images I've curated here.

Kick off a conversation about plagiarism, fair use, and creators' rights in your classroom.

Many kids -- and even adults -- don't fully understand the power of copyright law. As we all know, the internet makes it extremely easy to use other people's work without permission. But access to all this content also gives us incredible opportunities for creation and critical thinking. Helping your students understand the nuances of copyright law, the doctrine of fair use, public domain, and Creative Commons licenses can support their development as critical, creative digital citizens.

Young kids understand respect and fairness, and copyright at its most basic level can be explained in these terms. With older students, in addition to focusing on what qualifies as plagiarism, you can introduce the complexities of copyright, including the doctrine of fair use, which gives students the right to remix and critique media. Kids of any age can feel incredibly validated to learn that the law protects their ideas and creations. To kick off the conversation in your classroom, we've gathered a few great lesson plans to get you started.
How can you give credit to your own creative work?
Students learn the basics -- title, name, and date -- for crediting creative work. They discuss the importance of citing work and learn why they should give themselves proper credit on their own work.
How can you show respect for other people's work?
Students learn that although the internet makes it very easy, copying the work of others and presenting it as one's own is plagiarism. They also learn about circumstances in which it's permissible to use the work of others. Students are introduced to proper ways to cite people's words and ideas from the internet, including how to write a citation.
What rights do you have as a creator?
Students explore the concept of fair use, apply it to case studies, and create an original work of fair use. Students learn how to judge whether something is protected by fair use, then apply what they learn to two case studies, a remixed video, and a mash-up song, to judge whether or not they fall under fair use. Students then create an original work of fair use by reworking copyrighted material into a collage or video.
What should you consider when you use other people's creative work?
Students reflect on the differences between taking inspiration from the creative work of others and appropriating that work without permission. Students review their knowledge of copyright and fair use and examine a case study involving the appropriation of music by a popular band. Students then form groups in which they role-play different stakeholders in the music industry and then debate the ethical and legal issues involved in using other people's creative work in practices such as remixing and sampling.

Teaching kids about copyright at a young age empowers them both to create their own content and use the content that others have created. This sets them up for success as digital citizens now and in the future.

MediaSmarts has developed resources is to support teachers in implementing digital literacy into their teaching practice and to help them to develop digital literacy lessons and activities that suit their students’ needs.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
While MediaSmarts' research shows that teachers place considerable importance on teaching their students digital literacy skills such as authenticating information, managing privacy, addressing cyberbullying, and being safe online, evidence suggests this is not reflected in Canadian classrooms. The intent of these resources is to support teachers in implementing digital literacy into their teaching practice and to help them to develop digital literacy lessons and activities that suit their students' needs.

Digital Literacy Training Workshops

The Digital Literacy Training Program for Canadian Educators workshop provides an overview of essential digital literacy skills and key concepts of media and digital literacy, familiarizes participants with the digital experiences of Canadian youth, and introduces the resources and tools that are available through MediaSmarts' digital literacy framework.

Each workshop is available as a self-directed tutorial or as a downloadable PowerPoint presentation ideal for presenting to a group. The workshop is timed to take three hours if all of the activities are included. If the activities are abridged or conducted by the facilitator it can be reduced to roughly two hours.

Implementing Digital Literacy in the Classroom Guide

This Classroom Guide provides practical toolsto help K-12 teachers make digital literacy a part of their classroom practice. While the training workshops focus on the five key concepts of digital literacy, this implementation guide looks at the specific skill areas that MediaSmarts has identified as being essential for students to learn by the end of their secondary education: ethics and empathy, privacy and security, community engagement, digital health, consumer awareness, finding and verifying and making and remixing. The guide also addresses common challenges to integrating digital literacy into the classroom, such as limitations on available technology and classroom management concerns, and includes links to relevant MediaSmarts' and other resources, and apps and tools for creating digital media in your classroom.

Digital Literacy Key Concept Videos
These resources were developed with financial support from CIRA's Community Investment Program and Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada's CanCode Program. The funding also supported a series of free digital literacy training workshops conducted by MediaSmarts in faculties of education across Canada.

Media educators base their teaching on key concepts of media literacy, which provide an effective foundation for examining mass media and popular culture. These key concepts act as filters that any media text has to go through in order for us to respond.

To help teachers introduce these to elementary students, MediaSmarts has partnered with Companies Committed to Kids (formerly Concerned Children's Advertisers) to develop a suite of videos on each of the key concepts. Each video is accompanied by a lesson plan that reiterates the main ideas from the videos and helps students expand and apply what they've learned.

MyWorld: A digital literacy tutorial for secondary students aims to teach students essential digital literacy skills through simulating their favourite online experiences. The tutorial is divided into four chapters, each of which focuses on a particular aspect of digital literacy: researching and authenticating online information, managing privacy and reputation, dealing with online relationships and using digital media in an ethical manner.

In each chapter, students use a variety of online tools and environments - a search engine, a social networking site, for example - to complete tasks that challenge their digital literacy skills. These tasks are based on issues youth encounter daily, relating to their friends, schoolwork and personal lives.

MyWorld includes:

an interactive online tutorial

training presentations on each chapter for teachers

an extensive Teacher's Guide with detailed instructions and assessment tools

a Classroom Activities Guide with background information, student handouts, and introductory, warm-up, follow-up and extension activities

"A game for students in grades 6 to 8, which aims to help students think critically about issues relating to online privacy and marketing, responsible Internet use, authenticating online resources and Internet Safety." (MediaSmarts)

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
A Day in the Life of the Jos, a game for students in grades six to eight, aims to help students to think critically about issues relating to online privacy and marketing, responsible Internet use, authenticating online resources and Internet safety. The game includes five modules, represented as five days in the lives of Jo and Josie, with each day covering a topic that research has identified as being important for youth: cyberbullying, data privacy, privacy and reputation, privacy ethics, and authentication.

Each day is further divided into scenarios with issues or challenges that Jo and Josie encounter. These scenarios are based on genuine problems that youth ages 11-14 often face when using digital media. As students determine what actions should be taken by Jo or Josie, they receive feedback on the consequences of their decisions to help them learn key skills and knowledge. Each day ends with a recap of the choices players have made.

A Day in the Life of the Jos, a Web-based resource in HTML5, addresses a wide variety of curricular needs, including Information Technology, Language Arts and Social Studies.

A Day in the Life of the Jos modules:

October 2: Defusing Drama (Cyberbullying) The scenarios in this module reflect three key aspects of cyberbullying: engaging in bullying, witnessing bullying, and being a target of bullying.

October 6: Who's Watching Me Now? (Data Privacy) This module addresses five key topics relating to data privacy: data mining in social media, permanence of digital information, geolocation, cybersecurity and targeted ads.

October 16: Think Before You Share (Privacy and Reputation) This module addresses five key topics relating to privacy and reputation: controlling audiences, dealing with unwanted photos, preventing online impersonation, building a positive brand, and dealing with pressure to share personal content.

October 22: Other People's Pictures (Privacy Ethics) This module addresses four key topics relating to privacy ethics: sharing other people's photos, copyright ethics, sharing others' personal information and sharing others' content.

October 28: Fool Me Once... (Authentication) This module addresses five key topics relating to authenticating online information: getting information from social media, authenticating crowd-sourced information such as Wikipedia, recognizing bias and loaded language, recognizing commercial content and authenticating videos.

The accompanying Teacher's Guide features an overview of A Day in the Life of the Jos, detailed instructions on how to play the game, links to research and resources on the issues covered in the scenarios, and an answer key to the questions accompanying each scenario. Teachers can track each student's progress in the game and evaluate their performance.

A Day in the Life of the Jos is accompanied by post-activity quizzes (one for each day in the game) that can be completed once students have finished a particular day. Each quiz includes five multiple-choice questions.

The game was created in partnership with Carleton University's CHORUS lab. Its usability and effectiveness was evaluated with grade six to eight students with results showing that it improved their digital literacy knowledge and behavioural intent, both immediately after playing the game and in post-test evaluations one week later. [1] The students who participated in the evaluation had very positive feedback about the game: they found it to be fun and relatable, as the characters were their age and presented situations they or their friends had encountered before.

You can create a safe space for your students to engage in conversation about digital topics with though-provoking images and a variety of activities.

Students of all ages can use the image/discussion cards I've created in a variety of ways. Asking students to group images and assign groups a label will force them to engage in discussion and analysis of the artwork in front of them. The questions on the back of the image cards can make great journal prompts, debate topics, and launches for research and inquiry projects.

For more ideas, check out this post on using images as bell ringers across the content areas.

You can also create your own digital citizenship discussion activities using the images I've curated here.

Enjoy!
