Here is a new visual from ISTE on the concept of digital citizenship. The visual outlines some of the features characterizing �good� digital citizens based on attributes of good citizens. The elements of digital citizenship, according to ISTE, � are not so different from the basic tenets of traditional citizenship: Be kind, respectful and responsible, and just do the right thing�. The ideas are pretty basic and will definitely give students a very good initiation into this huge concept of digital citizenship. I would suggest that you print it off and use it in class.
Here is a brief overview of the 9 features characterizing good digital citizens as displayed in the visual below:
- Advocates for equal digital rights and access for all.
- Treats others with respect in online spaces and never cyberbullies.
- Does not steal or damage others� digital work, identity or property.
- Makes appropriate decisions when communicating through a variety of digital channels.
- Uses digital tools to advance their learning and keeps up with changing technologies.
- Makes responsible online purchasing decisions and protects their payment information.
- Upholds basic human rights in all digital forums.
- Protects personal information from outside forces that might cause harm.
- Proactively limits health risks of technology, from physical to psychological.
