Cybercitizenry

During our cybercitizenry unit in Selection and Integration of Instructional Technology class, we discussed the positive and negative effects of media on children. So what exactly is the place of digital media in our students’ lives and how do we approach positive social interaction? Our next project for class was to utilize digital media lessons and resources on commonsensemedia.org to present a specific topic concerning media or cybercitizenry to students, parents, and teachers. Common Sense Media strives to provide trustworthy information to parents, educators, and kids and to educate them about media and technology.



The goal of the project was to create a short lesson plan to educate and promote positive and healthy ways of communicating online and to test students’ knowledge of digital media and how it affects their lives. Click here to see my Cybercitizenry Lesson Plan.
