  1. Warrior Wednesday DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP

  2. Digital Citizenship covers 9 areas according to Mike Ribble, an expert in the field. What is “Digital Citizenship”? • Etiquette • Communication • Literacy • Access • Commerce • Law • Rights and Responsibility • Health/Wellness • Security http://www.digitalcitizenship.net

  3. Today we will discuss 4 of them. • Privacy - Protect Personal Information • Respect - Plagiarism, Downloading Music Appropriately. • Self Expression - Create your own ideas. • Responsibility - To self, others and community. Technology is a tool : Just like any tool, its uses and misuses can help or hurt you and others.

  4. Privacy • Protect YOUR personal information and your computer. • Social Security Numbers • Telephone Numbers • Addresses • Passwords • Schools that you attend • Personal Location • Clubs / Organizations you belong to • Use virus protection and avoid scams, phishing, chain letters ‘Share only what you would want your parents or teachers to see – It follows you your whole life.’

  5. Respect • Respect privacy of others. • Posting others’ information or personal pictures is an example of Cyber Bullying. • Inappropriate photos may be construed as distribution of pornography. • (Felony) • This goes not only for the Internet but also cell phones. ‘Once something has been posted, You can never get it back!’

  6. Respect, continued: • Respect others creative works. • Plagiarism: Must give credit to original creator. • Using the works of others’ is “Theft by taking” (the same as stealing from a store). • Example: Downloading an artist’s music to use in YOUR own creative project, and then uploading onto the internet without permission, is illegal and a Federal crime punishable by 1 or more years served in prison (Felony). • How would you feel if you wrote your own song or poem and someone else publishes it and gets the credit and the money?

  7. Self Expression • Social Networking is a great way to interact with friends and family. • Keeping journals and using blogs. • Expressing yourself through creative writing, photos and other pieces of works. • However, protect yourself: • Use an “Avatar” instead of your original photo and name. • Never put out pertinent information that may allow someone to steal YOUR identity or allow someone to track you. • SS#, Telephone #, Address, Banking Passwords, etc.

  8. Responsibility • Be responsible for your own actions and choices when using Social Networks and the Internet. • Use Common Courtesy & Common Sense. • Give credit where credit is due. Cite appropriately. ‘If it doesn’t feel right, don’t do it!!’ • Remember, you represent : • yourself, • your family, • your school • your community.

  9. “As Digital Citizens we must empower ourselves to be smart about how we create, communicate, and treat others in our 24/7 digital world as we strive to use technology appropriately.” http://www.digitalcitizenship.net http://www.commonsensemedia.org
