I had forgotten that most of the assignments that I uploaded for grad school had to be set to "public" for viewing.  I was surprised when I saw those pop up.

Interesting that I have a shared Pinterest board with a friend from Florida...I was able to see her entire Pinterest collection from a link under my name.  Just an odd find...

I'm pretty boring on paper, lol!

I thought the point made on the very first page was important:  digital citizenship is not just about cyberbullying.  If we think about digital citizenship in the same way we think about "regular" citizenship, we will realize it encompasses so much more than that. We don't only see citizenship as not being a bully.

# data[].attributes.body
This digital age is new to all of us. I think as educators, as well as adults living in this world, we need to understand the implications of digital citizenship in our own lives. I also think many of our parents are not aware of the importance of digital citizenship for themselves or their children. Most parents probably think of the safety aspect, but not much else (we teachers are probably guilty of this as well). Our students are coming to us less prepared in many ways, but most are pros with technology, at least navigating it. I'd be willing to bet digital citizenship isn't brought up much at home.  I also think students and parents need to see the positive (learning) impact social media can have on their children.

# data[].attributes.body
I pretty much covered this in the previous post. I think parents see this as the teachers' job or don't think of it at all. I can also see the problem of teaching a lesson (or few lessons) as a "box being checked off" rather than incorporating digital citizenship in our everyday life.

# data[].attributes.body
I have been hungry for more information about digital citizenship.  The more technology we use with kids, the more opportunities there are for kids to NOT use it correctly if this topic is not always in the front of our minds in working with and planning everything we do with technology!  If digital citizenship is not being considered when using with students, you are bound to come across a few bumps in the road... The more front-loading we do with digital citizenship being intentional and preventative, the more successful implementing technology with students will be!

For me, I see a need in grades 3-5 students for "Digital Footprints and Reputation" and "Self-Image and Identity".  Our kids are really struggling with this when it comes to things like sharing digitally created work, profile pictures or avatars, and  commenting on peer work, just to name a few of the big ones.  I am excited about this book providing some strategies for dealing with these issues.

# data[].attributes.body
Wow! I had no idea my whole family is listed. The "Instant Checkmate" website even had an image of what they were calling my fingerprint. The rest of it was all things from my social media, which was expected. Pretty neat to do though!

# data[].attributes.body
There are so many little things we're probably doing, but still so much more we need to be doing.
- private usernames and passwords
- profile pictures and avatars
- commenting on peer work
- posting and sharing student created work

The anonymous comment to Kayla is from me. Sorry didn't sign in before commenting. I'm still learning.
I feel that teacher and students need to be aware of how to operate and use technology. Not just turning it on or logging in but fully understanding its usefulness and possible threats. I think too often we don't take it as seriously as we should. Students start learning at such a young age on how to operate a computer and know more of how to do things than some adults. It is important to use it correctly so it can be used effectively. I feel that there are so many great resources at our fingertips as well as students and taking the right avenues to get there is key. Making everyone aware of the potential dangers, red flags and correct avenues to navigate is crucial. As teachers we need to be able to educate parents on this so they can help their kids at home.

# data[].attributes.body
Students need to be able to successfully search the internet. Understanding key words that will help their search be a successful. I think it is important for them to know the navigation process, at least for first grade.

# data[].attributes.body
I am a pretty private person when it comes to social media, or at least I try to be. I am not sure if I am searching correctly but I didn't find much. I did see on the same site that Kayla did about who my sister is and different cities I have lived in. I also found I am a good neighbor cause I had no complaints against me. lol!

Jamie as you commented to Ginny we talk about the sharing of each other's lunch numbers as well as their computer numbers. Other than that we encourage what you teach them in the library when they enter a site and to keep information private.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel that Benfer would definitely benefit from a community based approach. Maybe I don't get out much but I don't hear of many people offering how to educate someone on DC. I also don't think people realize what a concern it is. They might not think they need to be educate until they see or read exactly what it involves. This book is eye opening because the littlest thing in the digital world could explode and if precautions are taken then things could be prevented, but first the learning needs to take place.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel our biggest challenge is getting parents interested in understanding what digital citizenship is and why they need to take the time to learn it. Parents often times don't realize what all their child is doing on the computer and what different avenues they are taking while they are on it. Something I highlighted in the book because I thought it was well put was, "What if we recognized that if an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, then helping our children be responsible digital citizens is well worth the investment?"
Parents and teachers need to realize that it is worth the investment because our children are worth the investment.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with the statement that digital citizenship should be taught and focused on as much as character education is. I'm
going to be honest digital citizenship encompasses way more than I thought it did when I started this book. I am 100% behind the need for teaching it.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm not so sure you can separate any one that is more important than the others.  They all seem so pertinent to being a good digital citizen as a whole.  If I had to pick for a second grader I would say information literacy would be a big one as well credit and copyright. Second graders take everything they read as true. If it's on the internet they think it's factual. Also they struggle with copyright when they are researching it's a struggle to get them to put things in their own words.

That was very surprising. I expected the Facebook stuff to come up but I wasn't expecting that many pictures or pictures of people associated with me. Nor was I expecting things from before the internet was what it is today but there the information was.

I'm with Ginny overall we really aren't other than what you touch on in the library. After reading this book I tell you I'm going to begin putting a lot more time into it. I feel very strongly that digital citizenship is going to be in the coming years almost as important as math or reading.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel everyone could benefit. Parents, children, ourselves. I don't think the majority of the people out there understand half of the importance of digital citizenship. I know I didn't (probably still don't) but this book is very eye opening for me. I know for a fact I'm going to be talking and working with my own children at home as well.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the biggest challenge would be getting community buy in. Getting parents to open their eyes to the seriousness of digital citizenship.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with what everyone is saying; its not just about cyberbullying  its about norms and how to be apportiate and responsible. I really like when the author also talks about how adults need to be role models however quite a few adults don't even know digital citizenship themselves.

Each and every category is just as important as the next however if there was an urgent need for one I would pick relationships and communication because Bearden hit it right on the button about how words can be easily misscommunicated and how most people can easily write something on line that they would never say face to face.

I totally forgot if this was in chapter one or not :/ but the example of the two boys calling each other poopy heads really stood out to me. I think there is a huge benefit to students to realize that what they say an do digitally can spread far and wide, the good and the bad. This leads to the colleges researching people before they are accepted and employers doing the same. Kids don't think about that stuff but maybe they should be...

I forgot I had signed up for linkedin right after college and then didn't delete. I am definitely making a digital footprint there... the other was my KISD webpage for Benfer PE.

Just like all of us, it is eyeopening to see how important DC is in today's world, not just for kids but for adults too.  I think a community-based approach is exactly what it is going to take in order to start making a real impact in changing the common perception of this topic.

Everyone said it above. Anything involving the parents would be tough to ensure that every kid was getting it. Whether it's limited internet access or even a language barrier, there are always going to be challenges. That can't keep us from trying anyway. Like several of y'all stated, our kids and their futures are too important.

Before reading this book, I never thought about how important it is to teach digital citizenship to only to the students, but to our staff and parents. We get on the internet more than once day and we need to know how to protect ourselves. We can benefit from learning more about digital citizenship daily.

Each categories are as important as the others. If I had an urgent need, I would say it would have to be relationships and communication. We do not teach students how to communicate properly via email, text message, or in other online spaces. This is a skill that needs to be exclusively taught. I believe the students would benefit from this.

I feel as a whole Benfer would benefit this. I know I was unaware of how important digital citizenship is. I feel I am not the only one who feels this way. I know some parents are unaware as well and need help to learn more about this.

I agree that it would be difficult to get parent involvement in this approach.

I didn't find too much of anything except a Linked in profile that is very plane and basic. I am a very private person when it comes to putting things online. I don't have Facebook or Instagram, I do have twitter but I only used it once just to look at educational tweets. Ever since I can remember I have been either too afraid, professional conscious or mainly just too busy to get online for any personal postings.

As far as fourth grade's approach to digital citizenship we only covered to basics at the very beginning of the school year. Like keeping your passwords private and discussing copyrights and and internet safety. When we started research I reviewed copyrights and internet safety but it wasn't in depth like i probably should have done. After reading the book this coming up school year I would love to make it a continued on going focus throughout the year. I knew about the risk and rewards but I really never just sat and thought about the great impact from both sides.

# data[].attributes.body
It would benefit everyone!!!!   I like what Bearden says on pg 17 " When it comes to emerging digital literacies, parents and educators who came of age in an earlier time often lack the necessary frame of reference needed to help children become responsible citizens." She hit it right on! I think from my generation and up we are scared of the unknown of most things that are digital. Having a community based approach will help ease some discomforts.

Getting everyone especially the "old school teachers to buy into an on going plan. We don't want them to think its another extra thing that they have to do.

With as much technology that we are using in the classroom, it is to use it safely and also make sure to teach them the ramifications of not using it in a safe and ethical manner.  After having several students this year have issues with posting inappropriate and harmful things on social media, I think we need to start with students at younger ages.  I agree that it needs to be a daily part of our technology instruction.

I agree with Christian that all are important but relationships and communication are vital.   I see so many posts where students are trying to out "funny" one another or post something to get a reaction from their peers.  Or they just don't know how communicate in a responsible manner.

Not anything surprising.  I don't have a lot of postings out there except for facebook.  It is interesting how much they do have out there about your past.  Also, you can tell different apps you use or have accounts with.

I think in 5th grade we are doing more with it because we use technology every day.  It is probably not as in depth as is needed.  Also, I think we take it for granted that we are in a walled environment for most of the time since we use  mainly google apps. However, students are being encouraged to use other outside tools and games, and we need to make sure they know how to approach creating accounts and interacting on these sites in a safe manner.

As our campuses become 1-1 with technology, students must be trainded in digital citizenship.  Just like social skills, it is not something most parents spend time on teaching either because of time, awareness, or being comfortable with it.  We need to make sure parents are also involved and we need to educate them as well.

# data[].attributes.headline
I think a big challenge is time.  Finding time in our busy daily schedule to make sure we include instruction on digital citizenship.  As educators, our plates are very full with all of the academic and curriculum demands as well as social emotional, that it is going to be a challenge to find the time for teachers to integrate it within our instruction.  I agree with Christian that many teachers will view it as one more thing to do, but I think we have to show them how to make it part of the natural instructional piece of using technology.
