What is Digital Citizenship
Digital citizenship is the responsible use of technology to learn, create and participate.
What do RCS students learn in the area of Digital Citizenship?
The Common Sense digital citizenship curriculum is framed around six digital topics that pose opportunities and challenges for young people according to current research. Topics include: Media Balance & Well-Being, Privacy & Security, Digital Footprint & Identity, Relationships & Communication, Cyberbullying, Digital Drama & Hate Speech, and News & Media Literacy. Each topic is addressed in a developmentally appropriate way throughout grades K–12.
