We, the Digital Citizens: Media Balance and Wellbeing
Learners explore the amazing possibilities that come with using technology. They'll also learn from the Digital Citizens, who take a pledge to be safe, responsible and respectful when travelling through the online world.
That's Private—Privacy and Security
Staying safe online is a lot like staying safe in the real world. By helping a Digital Citizen sign up for a new app, learners can begin to understand the kinds of information they should keep to themselves when they use the internet -- just as they would with a stranger in person.
Who is in your Online Community? Relationships and Community
We are all connected on the internet! By learning the "Rings of Responsibility", learners explore how the internet connects us to people in our community and throughout the world.
Device-Free Moments - Media Balance and Wellbeing
Technology use isn't always a distraction, but there are definitely times when it's best to keep devices away. Help learners understand when it's appropriate to use technology and when it's not -- and practise making family rules for device-free time at home.
Digital Trails: Digital Footprint and Security
Does what you do online always stay online? Learners understand that the information they share online leaves a digital footprint, or "trail." Depending on how they manage it, this trail can be big or small and harmful or helpful.
Putting a Stop to Online Meanness - Cyberbullying, Digital Drama and Hate Speech
The internet is filled with all kinds of interesting people, but sometimes some of them can be mean to each other.
With this role play, help your learners understand why it's often easier to be mean online than in person and how to deal with online meanness when they see it
Lets Give Credit - News and Media Literacy
With so much information at our fingertips, help learners to understand what it means to "give credit" when using content they find online.
Taking on the role of a detective, learners will understand why it's important to give credit and the right ways to do it when they use words, images or ideas that belong to others.
