The SISD Strategic Plan:
The Learner Profile, emphasizes the importance of providing an educational setting where every student is empowered to be:
Self Motivated, Confident, An Adaptable Learner, A Critical Thinker, A Productive Citizen.
Teaching digital citizenship to students is essential in today's interconnected world. As young people increasingly engage with digital platforms for learning, communication, and entertainment, it is crucial they understand how to navigate these spaces responsibly.
Digital citizenship encompasses a wide range of skills, including online safety, privacy, ethical use of information, and respectful interaction with others. By instilling these values early, we empower students to protect themselves from cyber threats, avoid misinformation, and contribute positively to online communities. Moreover, fostering digital literacy helps students become critical thinkers and informed participants in the digital age, preparing them for both academic success and responsible global citizenship.
