Digital Citizenship

The Digital Citizenship elective uses a curriculum developed by Common Sense Media. The media content that children and teens consume and create has a profound impact on their social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development. Learning how to navigate our constantly-changing digital world is an essential skill for life and learning in the 21st century. Through class discussions, activities, videos, and interactive online challenges, the program empowers students to think critically, behave safely, and participate responsibly in our digital world. 

Units of study include:
-- Self-image and Online Identity
-- Digital Footprint and Reputation
-- Online Privacy and Security
-- News and Media Literacy
-- Respectful Communication and Cyberbullying
-- Creator's Rights and Responsibilities
