 About the Website!
On NETS IV (National Educational Technology Standards), I investigated ways to "advocate, model, and teach safe, legal, and ethical use of technology and information including copyright, privacy issues, and cyber-bullying, and security of systems, data, and information." One resource provided to me was on Digital Citizenship . This website provides various sources that discuss the technology etiquette and also how to use technology the safe way. According to this website, Digital Citizenship is defined as, “the norms of appropriate, responsible behavior with regard to technology use”. Cyber-bullying, illegal downloading, privacy issues, etc., are all major concerns in today's technology world. Unfortunately, not too many people know how to deal with these issues, or do not understand the implications of these issues. This Digital Citizenship website provides a page of a number of Published Articles on the topic of Digital Citizenship, and also have a page that describes the 9 Themes of Digital Citizenship. The 9 themes include: Digital Access, Digital Commerce, Digital Communication, Digital Literacy, Digital Ettiquette, Digital Laws, Digital Rights & Responsibilities, Digital Health & Wellness, and Digital Security (self-protection). If you want to find out more about Digital Citizenship, or had any questions related to this topic, there is the option of contacting Mike, the maker of this website. Very easy to use source if you are looking for information or sources on Digital Citizenship!
