[ISLMA-Share] Digital citizenship lesson?

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

I use Common Sense Media lessons as well, but I also like the lessons on
Netsmartz.org, particularly their videos.  We had created our own
curriculum back "in the day" but have found it difficult to keep up with
all the changes in technology, social media and the things kids are doing
online. So, why keep reinventing the wheel?  Common Sense Media and
Netsmartz have pretty much everything you need ready to go for you.

If you'd like a powerful cyberbullying video for older students (7th/8th
grade) then take a look at this one by Childnet International.  Every year
I get at least one student asking for help with bullying after showing this
video.
