October 6, 2026 is the date for this fall's symposium, happening at ESU 3, 5, 7, 8, 10, and 11! We are excited to welcome Kristen Mattson back to facilitate the day!
The 2025 DCS was held on October 8 at five Nebraska ESUs. Our participation consisted of 133 people from 20 districts representing 10 ESUs! Check out the map and highlight video below!
We invited teams of students and a teacher, counselor, librarian, or other adult to attend our annual symposium in person at one of five Nebraska ESUs. The day was filled with learning, collaborating, and creating a digital citizenship action to bring back to the districts.
Our guest speaker this year was Kristen Mattson. Through her work with Digital Citizenship as a teacher, school librarian, presenter, author, and doctoral student, Kristen has developed a framework around 4 pillars: Digital Safety, Media and Information Literacy, Digital Well-being, and Social Responsibility. You can find her curricular framework and read more about her work at Teach DigCit and Edvolve .
We also sponsor a Poster/Public Service Announcement contest for K-12 students each year. 2026 winners will be posted soon! We had a record number of entries this year at 237!
