    cover learning strategies that yield more credible results. Because you get so

    • Is the site legitimate or a hoax?
    • Is the author an expert in this subject?
    • Is the information current or dated?
    • Is the data neutral or biased?
    Ethical Use of

    and the proper way to reference the information. Don’t forget to cite
    information from books and onlineas well.

    A digital footprint is all of the information a person passively leaves
    and actively shares about themselves online, especially on social media
    sites. Text, images, multimedia, cookies, browsing histories, IP addresses,
    passwords, and even Internet service providers all make up a person’s
    digital footprint.
    Protecting Yourself
    Online
     With so much information available online, you need to understand the
    basics of Internet safety.

     Creating strong passwords, using privacy settings, and knowing what


    not to share on social media will start you on the right foot.
    Cyberbullying
    This means the use of technology as a means to harass
    others.
    Teaching Dual
    Citizenship
    1. Know what’s right from wrong.
    2. Understand the consequences.
    3. Don’t talk to strangers.
    4. Always play fair.
    5. Choose your friends wisely.
