Digital citizenship


It is important to be responsible when using the internet and the most important thing is that you do not belive every thing you see on it and not see and do bad things on the internet. There are bad people out there that do bad things on the internet that we should not watch, be a part of or even do. you should use the internet for education, personal enjoyment ( but not in a bad way ). The internet is a very good thing if you use it in a responsible and mannerful way. You should not give out your personal information unless the site says it will keep it personally. You shoul not buy stuff from the internet unless from a reliable site like Amazon .com and gamestop.com

You should not use the computer and internet too much because it is not good for your health, your ey sight will weaken and you will grow fat and problems will occur for you. Computers are good but they are not good if you use them more than what is needed.

The nine elements of digital citizenship
  1. Digital Access: full electronic participation in society.
  2. Digital Commerce: the buying and selling of goods online.
  3. Digital Communication: the electronic exchange of information.
  4. Digital Literacy: the capability to use digital technology and knowing when and how to use it.
  5. Digital Etiquette: the standards of conduct expected by other digital technology users.
  6. Digital Law: the legal rights and restrictions governing technology use.
  7. Digital Rights and Responsibilities: the privileges and freedoms extended to all digital technology users, and the behavioural expectations that come with them.
  8. Digital Health and Wellness: the elements of physical and psychological well-being related to digital technology use.
  9. Digital Security: the precautions that all technology users must take to guarantee their personal safety and the security of their network.

I.T 2009 growing up online review

People should not do everything on line and should have a social life outside the computer and should go out with friends and meet new people the old fashioned way. Always being on the computer is not good for your healthy and makes you weaker in person. it is okay to use the internet for pleasure and meeting people but it is not good to be too active on the internet and computer.


It is good to modernize what teachers do in the classroom and it is more encouraging for students to deal with technology because they like it and it gives them a better view in things. It is not good to forget our past and not get too lazy to write by hand, and how to read because there is a program on the computer that reads to them and gives them summaries. It is good to remember our past and what they had to do and the effort they put into learning. I f they don't learn who will be there to actually create and think of new things and inventions for them.

People and you should always keep your own identity, never try to be somebody you aren't, if you do that you will be damaged in real life you will be messed up.

There bad people out there AND YOU MUST NOT BE ATTRACTED BY THEIR BAD ACTIONS
