 * Digital Citizenship is a concept which helps teachers and technology leaders understand what students should know to use technology appropriately. But Digital Citizenship is more than just a teaching tool, it is a way to prepare students for a society full of technology. Too often we are seeing students as well as adults misusing and abusing technology. The issue is more than what the users do not know but instead what is considered appropriate technology usage. We thought these site might assist you as you address the subject with our students. **

====Chinook's Edge School Division will be using the Mike Ribble Book - Digital Citizenship in Schools with our Technology Integration leaders and AISI leaders. Just as we have rules and procedures in our daily society, we also have rules and procedures for life online. It is our responsibility to teach this to our children or students so that they understand what it means to be a "Digital Citizen". The following resources are provided for teacher and parent use. Teaching Digital Citizenship is not a "one shot" affair, but should be permeated whenever we are integrating technology into the curriculum.====
