Common Sense Media Google's Internet Be Awesome Stanford's History Education Group What is Digital Citizenship? Why is Digital Citizenship Import? The internet is the way one is seen online. Digital Citizenship's purpose is to develop skills to keep everyone safe online. Some rules and guidelines for teaching and using might be:
On Google Internet Be Awesome, I am going to add these games to my Tech Tuesdays with my kiddos to start the process of teaching Digital Citizenship. The games are fun and challenging, fun graphics and they teach a great message. I am very excited to teach one of these games at a time in a group. In Stanford's History Educational Group, I found this to be a little higher level than what I would teach for my groups and definitely not how I can see fitting in to my curriculum currently, but could be very valuable to homeroom teachers. I loved the Reading Like a Historian and how it engages student and their inquiry to all sources and how they should be evaluating all resources they encounter. The skills in Reading Like a Historian would help students prepare them for CAASSP testing as the students are asked to do similar tasks in the terms of looking for primary and secondary sources. The other area I enjoyed learning about was Beyond the Bubble in which History Assessments of Thinking (HATS) are "sourcing the document". As we know history books are not all written with all parts of the historians in mind equally. This would be fabulous when evaluating what perspective of history bias in the information students are reading from (i. e. on topics such as: Columbus, Native Americans, Times of Slavery, etc.)

Hi Monica! I also really enjoyed Google’s “Be Internet Awesome” site. What an awesome idea to integrate these games into your Tech Tuesdays! I think I will join you in this! I think our upper grade students will love learning about digital citizenship through these engaging games. You did a great job giving an overview of our resources this week. Awesome job!
