Digital Citizenship
The Edtech Project aims to curate resources for educators that are already aligned to current lessons/practices. The goal of this project is to embed digital citizenship lessons into content lessons so that educators don’t need to set time aside to teach these vital skills.

#DIGCIT Presentations

Making Sense of Common Sense MediaAs an introduction to the website Common Sense Media, this presentation aims to introduce all of the resources for educators. The presentation included a brief overview of #DigCit skills and then highlighted one example of how digital citizenship is being taught in a school district.

#DigCit Discussion
It was apparent that teachers were looking for ways to embed dig cit practices in their school day, so I collaborated with some amazing teachers on the different opportunities they had to embed #DigCit in their lessons, specifically focusing on their discussions during lessons.

Shifting the #DigCit Mindse
This session focuses on looking at DigCit differently. Rather than looking at the list of things you don't do, we focus on the things we can do!
