HIGH SCHOOL DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP

Students don't always realize the permanence of their actions online. In high school as students are given freedom online, it become even more important to help them understand the consequences of possible actions. Everyone has heard the story of a young adult ranting online and thought about the that impact on their life. Within the last year we have seen people lose their jobs and options due to actions they have taken that have been filmed by themselves or others. As teachers, it is important that we help our students understand the risks they face in a digital world. It is also a good opportunity to teach our students the benefits of living in a connected world where we can impact lives for the better as well.
