I think that this was a resource that was important to add because it is a ministry approved website and gives teachers the option to do workshops with students. I am not sure if this is a resource that I would personally use in my classroom because I feel that it is a bit general with the information that is given. I think this resource might be beneficial to teachers and educators who are familiar with incorporating technology into the classroom.

Grappling with these questions is just the beginning of the digital citizenship conversation. Most educators recognize the need for it, but many struggle with the best way to teach it.

In classrooms where digital citizenship is taught effectively, teachers have two things in common: They model ethical technology use for their students on a daily basis, and they naturally incorporate conversations about it whenever technology is part of their lesson plan. In other words, they weave digital citizenship seamlessly throughout their curriculum."

I chose to incorporate this resource into my Padlet board because I looked at the resources that were posted and found them to be very helpful. Similar to many of the other resources, this resource always breaks things up into specific categories and upon clicking on each category, a large very wordy article will come up that gives teachers ideas on how to incorporate certain digital literacies into the classroom without strictly giving a lesson and teaching it. For example, in the section called "Don't teach it - embed it" it mentions "Teacher approval. I have the power to approve or deny any student submission before it makes it onto the classroom feed. I use this dynamic as a way to set up some useful classroom discussions: What happens when your teacher is no longer there to be your filter? What happens when it’s not just your classmates, but your employers who can see your online presence? These are real-life situations presented in a safe place. The is the first step in helping students cultivate a positive digital identity."

Unlike many of the other resources that I came across, this one is quite different in the sense that, it does not have lessons laid out but rather gives teachers ways to demonstrate the importance of digital literacies in how they teach and approach the class. I think that this is geared towards older grades and this would be an extremely beneficial resource for teachers who are speaking to students who are aware of what it means to be digitally literate.

In approaching this topic in the classroom, teachers should encourage students to explore their own attitudes towards the issues surrounding the games that they play - without condemning the games themselves."

This resource is a simple lesson plan but the reason I decided to post this on my board is because I found that a lot of the resources that are on digital literacy are not often specific to mental health and well-being. I think in an age where students are constantly on their phones playing video games and then are going home and playing video games on their game consoles, discussing this is very important. This resource contains a learning outcomes section and then a video link as well as a link to slides and handouts. In thinking about my past experiences of practicum and video games being an ongoing issue, this is something that I would do with my classroom in talking about mental-health and well being - something that we discuss often in relation to mindfulness.
