Presentation Notes

Slide 4

+electronic standards of conduct or procedure. Not taught separately but integrated throughout the curriculum in an ongoing process.

Slide 5

+electronic exchange of information. Unfortunately, many users have not been taught how to make appropriate decisions when faced so many different digital communication options. Myspace; chat; Facebook;

Slide 6

The process of teaching and learning about technology and the use of technology. Most important way for media specialists to enter the conversation. Validates your position in the school as the “media center”. A renewed focus must be made on what technologies must be taught as well as how it should be used. New technologies are finding their way into the work place that is not being used in schools (e.g., videoconferencing, online Course Management Systems). In addition, workers in many different occupations need information when they need it (just-in-time information). This process requires sophisticated searching and processing skills (i.e., information literacy). Learners must be taught how to learn in a digital society. In other words, learners must be taught to learn anything, anytime, anywhere. Business, military, and medicine are excellent examples of how technology is being used differently in the 21st century. As new technologies emerge, need to learn how to use that technology quickly and appropriately. Digital Citizenship involves educating a new breed of person—information workers with a high degree of information literacy skills.

Slide 7

This is an ‘equity issue’—blocking information is a different kind of censorship—a 21st century censorship. Also, blocking access goes against the mission on NCLB. No digital exclusion! Electronic access should not be determined by race, physical or mental challenges that prevent access to technology have to be overcome. Those in cities or towns with limited connectivity need to be addressed as well.

Slide 8

=electronic buying and selling of goods. Technology users need to understand that a large share of market economy is being done electronically. Legitimate and legal exchanges are occurring. The mainstream availability of Internet purchases of toys, clothing, cars, food, etc. has become commonplace. At the same time, an equal amount of illegal/immoral goods and services are surfacing such as pornography and gambling. Users need to learn about how to be effective consumers in a new digital economy.

Slide 9

=electronic responsibility for actions and deeds ; the ethics of technology. A whole new meaning to copyright law. There are certain rules of society that fall under illegal acts. These laws apply to anyone who works or plays online. Hacking into others information, downloading illegal music, plagiarizing, creating destructive worms, viruses or creating Trojan Horses, sending spam, or stealing anyone’s identify or property is unethical.

Slide 10

=those freedoms extended to everyone in a digital world. Digital citizens have the right to privacy, free speech, etc. Basic digital rights must be addressed, discussed, and understood in the digital world. With these rights also come responsibilities as well. Users must help define how the technology is to be used in an appropriate manner.

Slide 11

Embedding DC in curriculum.

Slide 12

Don’t’ settle for mediocrity: empower students!

Slide 13

=physical and psychological well-being in a digital technology world. Cyberbullying here. But also something as simple as carpal tunnel syndrome would fall in this category. So the physical and psychological issues.

Slide 14

electronic precautions to guarantee safety. In any society, there are individuals who steal, deface, or disrupt other people. The same is true for the digital community. It is not enough to trust other members in the community for our own safety. In our own homes, we put locks on our doors and fire alarms in our houses to provide some level of protection. The same must be true for the digital security. We need to have virus protection, backups of data, and surge control of our equipment. As responsible citizens, we must protect our information from outside forces that might cause disruption or harm.

Slide 16

Wikis and blogs can promote DC
