Discuss one approach to embedding digital citizenship into the curriculum
"We want our students to have technological fluency and 21st century competencies, yet there is a wide variability in what each school provides in terms of access to technology and priority for education about digital citizenship" This sentence really sums up our current curriculum surrounding digital citizenship. We want our students to experience all the benefits of technology yet as an education system we are not addressing the issues surrounding this use. The students are expected to keep up with this technology but aren't gaining the skills to do this in a safe and productive manner. A digital citizenship curriculum is valuable and worthwhile when it is a part of the everyday curriculum as this is the frequency at which our students are using technology. This needs to be incorporated into the curriculum so that its normal practice for the students. This would make it valuable and worthwhile, if students interacted with the digital citizenship curriculum everyday. Embedding digital citizenship into our everyday teaching would be my approach.
