Welcome to the convo Cheri!
Q1 Where and when should digital citizenship be taught?
Love the term of endearment "suspects"!!!
Representing Bedford, IN-Limestone capital of IN
R1 should be taught at the beginning of every class every semester.
A1: Should be a part of the daily routine. Using the net is a constant choice before post or use. Ops. to discuss always occuring
R1: should not be taught necessarily. It should be a way of life that is lived out by all adults modeling for children
I'll do my best to spread the word.
R1 LOVE this: “work through the standards in multi-subject areas” IN K8 CS standards-which includes DigCit https://t.co/wV7Tjp0FuA
R1: B.O.Y. with front-loading, then daily, embedded in instruction.
R1 Is everywhere and all the time possible? Definitely across subject areas, especially with the new CS standards
So true! I hope that as more educators become aware of that they see more of those opportunities! https://t.co/GX5oMRjSDZ
A1: Should be a part of the daily routine. Using the net is a constant choice before post or use. Ops. to discuss always occuring
R1: New CS standards may help integrate/reinforce.
Q1: Every class, every day! If we want to be meaningful, we can't just talk about it once and be done!
Digital Citizenship needs to be taught in every classroom, regardless of content! The younger the better.
A1 I think it should start in Elem and be reviewed annually. Start young and force feed it Into their brains!
R1 Taught with structured points of emphasis, but modeled in daily action ALL THE TIME
R1 Digital Citizenship should be fully integrated in to a daily message as more culture change
R1: Digital citizenship is a skill that should be taught and reinforced daily.
YES!!! https://t.co/kTd1eMSvBe
R1: should not be taught necessarily. It should be a way of life that is lived out by all adults modeling for children
R1- Ideally/hopefully in every classroom in context as you go. Separately often ends up in a tech course or w school librarian.
R1: taught explicitly at beginning of year then constantly modeled and practiced all year long
I'm Elizabeth Finney, from Carmel Elementary School, in Carmel, IN. I teach in the computer lab so feels huge to me.
I agree. Start young and review often.
Yaaasssss!! https://t.co/rZ8tuFY8J3
Q1: Every class, every day! If we want to be meaningful, we can't just talk about it once and be done!
I see us getting to this point in this decade, but there are still so smany that need the education https://t.co/l5F9KfxqxN
R1: should not be taught necessarily. It should be a way of life that is lived out by all adults modeling for children
R1. Everywhere! In an connected class, its all Ts, not just ones of tech. Extremely important to spread similar ideas and messages
it is really character education on many ways
This is why Classroom social media accounts are necessary. Model proper use naturally.
I agree that there is a skill set. I recently heard it referred to as intelligences could it be both? https://t.co/pM4HtRN0LV
R1: Digital citizenship is a skill that should be taught and reinforced daily.
yes! I think we take for granted how effective modeling and simply talking out our thinking is w Ss on .
BINGO!!!! https://t.co/o9tTOV07t3
I agree that there is a skill set. I recently heard it referred to as intelligences could it be both? https://t.co/pM4HtRN0LV

R1: should not be taught necessarily. It should be a way of life that is lived out by all adults modeling for children
it really is. This day and age it is about character!
All the time is such a crucial point! It is not taught in isolation. It is what we do ALWAYS! https://t.co/P9REQDXy6I
R1 Taught with structured points of emphasis, but modeled in daily action ALL THE TIME
Some people say it should just be "Citizenship" and not separated into https://t.co/7OdOXhffG8
it is really character education on many ways
Agreed!!! It has a cultural impact! https://t.co/QACeWPpZr6
R1 Digital Citizenship should be fully integrated in to a daily message as more culture change
I'm SO glad that you see it as a starting point! My worst fear is that it's someone's end point https://t.co/u4xpZhUucA
Hopefully is a nice starting point to push teachers towards daily practice!
R1 Big Q for me. I did 1 lesson last yr per grade; thought, I need to do more. This yr, 1ce/qrtr is goal. https://t.co/GrKi2NdlUH
Q1 Where and when should digital citizenship be taught?

R1: But I do think it should be taught throughout the school, by Gen Ed as well as Computer Lab IAs... https://t.co/GrKi2MVKw7
Q1 Where and when should digital citizenship be taught?

Q1 Where and when should digital citizenship be taught?
I agree. Everyone is responsible for teaching & modeling the way!
Susan makes a good point on this topic in her book
Q2 How is your school/district currently approaching education?
It truly is a culture shift in message of how to handle a digital footprint. Much like any other curriculum piece
I think we all can wrap our heads around that as tech is more entangled as the new normal https://t.co/OeMpPuKLQG
Some people say it should just be "Citizenship" and not separated into https://t.co/7OdOXhffG8
it is really character education on many ways
I agree - lots of organic ops to discuss, plus some deliberate lessons to teach along the way. https://t.co/DuPSCngunN
A1: Should be a part of the daily routine. Using the net is a constant choice before post or use. Ops. to discuss always occuring

Been posting this in our weekly newsletters! GREAT stuff!
I'll definitely answer any questions you have! We created modules on Canvas and had videos and assignments for Ss.

R3 Hosting a week echoes the importance of being a digital citizen. collaborate, share, & learn
R3: Main value is connecting schools. Creates a common bond. Builds connectivity, collaboration, and focus.
it's hard to get all on board. It's essential but many don't find value. Needs to be well designed by a school
Intelligences? Like Howard Gardner? https://t.co/a8CmQxGD8G
I agree that there is a skill set. I recently heard it referred to as intelligences could it be both? https://t.co/pM4HtRN0LV

Matt Canada from BNL in Bedford. Signing in late. Love what I'm seeing tweet tonight!
R3. One of the biggest benefits is culture. Without a culture of emphasis on , it gets lost in the multitude of other goals

Yes, let's change the narrative that dictated the last decade and really focus on leadership! https://t.co/m6JIGXNqJg
R3 Edu on topic of course, but also changes narrative that "students+comp=doing bad" Students ARE the narrative-creators-champions

Awareness is the first step in making the necessary change to infuse it into our curriculum/culture.

R1: But I do think it should be taught throughout the school, by Gen Ed as well as Computer Lab IAs... https://t.co/GrKi2MVKw7
Q1 Where and when should digital citizenship be taught?
R3 Statewide events help to open the eys of Educators that my have not bought in to the needs and idea of Dig Cit for our students

Great idea with the badges!

I'm so excited, our character education word for September is now citizenship

R5 a digital footprint is not just a term isolated for students...
Don't get caught up in the hurdles (a little Olympic analogy) remember the question, what is the VALUE in offering
I did a combo. Kids brought their devices. We did a little family project. A kahoot over Digcit topics.
Wouldn't it be cool if our Ss created videos on sharing what they have learned w/ their Ps? Might start great convos!
check out the resources that has-I'll be sharing them
Had speaker from State Police in conjunction with Back to School Night. about 50 in attendance, Ts, Ps & Ss
Would love to see example of the contract. Are the responses pretty good, i.e. amount created/signed?
One of our Media Specialist did just this for her Cert. Did PSA's on https://t.co/Iuqm0Z1i9e

Let's be honest, many parents could use some education on since their posts are often the source of bad examples for Ss
R6 Short on time? I have prepared a set of daily social media posts that you can use during IN DigCitWeek https://t.co/dSoapiKW8n
R6 Have no idea where to begin? Some suggestions for getting started-they also work towards certification https://t.co/xxTs6h7zCL
Great quote. https://t.co/x8BwtqHAs0
R4: Need to include some of the positive, too. My fav Steven Johnson quote: "Chance favors the connected mind"
R6 - We really haven't, but seeing some of the ideas tonight have really given us some pointers on where to begin the transition!
thank you for validating a topic that came up a lot in my course/projects!
And then posted said videos in a responsible manner with appropriate commenting! Love the student vid ideas.
R6 Send home tip sheets during IN DigCitWeek-Find them on both sets of PLANs-by school or grade level https://t.co/ADmtQj8Gcn
Great ideas shared indeed!!! That is why connected is the way to be!
Yes! That would be great!
R6: Gathering ideas tonight, but we have started small with sharing some resources for Ps including content from

Q5 DigCitWeek is designed to engage families in the dialogue. What are the benefits of making this happen?
Q7 What specific steps can you take in order for your class, school/ district to participate in Indiana’s DigCitWeek Sept 12-16?
R6: Part of Cert is parent engagement. Several good ideas in their material. https://t.co/liqjX7kpvW
Q6 How has your school engaged parents in education? What are the challenges? What steps can be taken to address them?
Student discussion between schools via hangouts?
It's so true! Many rushed and the students and the learning moved away from being the focus.
R7: KEEP TALKING ABOUT IT!! Don't let the discussion die. https://t.co/ON8bcljzd6
Q7 What specific steps can you take in order for your class, school/ district to participate in Indiana’s DigCitWeek Sept 12-16?
Q7: I think it will be most successful when Ss are leading it and motivated to keep it going
R7: Just as we do for Red Ribbon & CollegeGo Week. It needs to be a community event! Not simply isolated in the school.
R7: Get the word out, make visits with key people sharing ideas. Did that today with Counselor and Admin. Help them get ready!
Ooof. https://t.co/lbplbmBVWL
We did. Not much engagement. Only about 20 parents from 16K students. Tough to get engagement. https://t.co/Gy2D8nkJ2Z
R5 Anyone hosted a student lead Town hall meeting or PD over Dig Cit with Parents at the focus?
R7 May sound odd, but have a b-ground image for Ts on their comps 4 week...lots of time pockets where that is visible on screen
I'd be willing to find a classroom at willing to discuss this via Hangout. https://t.co/pIo1zlLssr

Cooooool . . . https://t.co/P7NRXIumAA
Wouldn't it be cool if our Ss created videos on sharing what they have learned w/ their Ps? Might start great convos!
It is so important to start the conversation early, not wait for that week. Let the week showcase

Sometimes when other give info from the outside it sinks in a bit more than always hearing info from the inside.
R7, never waver from the topic... week is just a celebration of the ongoing narrative.
Yes. https://t.co/ejQN0FwRuW
Did you record the presentation and share it on youtube for parents to watch who couldn't attend?
it's harder to go back and do the work, but it's essential and possible!
R7 partner with neighboring schools to swap admin/student presentations for a fresh voice week
