Instilling Responsible Digital Citizenship

In the digital age, guiding students to navigate digital playgrounds to cultivate a community of well-balanced and informed digital citizens is more crucial than ever! In the current digital world, students have access to devices 24/7; playground drama tends to follow young people home as they are always “on” and never in flight mode. Online actions have the potential to follow us into the future.  In the new era of Gen-AI, what are the possible risks and implications regarding digital citizenship? Join us for an interactive workshop designed to empower educators with the tools and knowledge necessary to cultivate responsible digital citizens in the digital age. 

In this dynamic workshop, we will map out our own digital footprints,  explore ethics and responsibility scenarios for digital citizenship and effective digital communication, and design digital well-being plans we can take back to our schools. Join us as we investigate solutions to help protect, guide, and support our students in making positive choices when interacting with all technologies.
