Digital Citizenship Starter Kit

Digital citizenship refers to the new codes of conduct we all must adopt be safe,

responsible, and respectful participants in today’s digitally connected culture.

One great way to get students thinking critically about digital citizenship is to let them

learn and practice new skills in a safe social-learning platform such as Edmodo.

That’s why Common Sense Media and Edmodo partnered to create this Digital Citizenship Starter Kit for your classroom. In it, you’ll find a series of activities and

lessons designed to introduce digital citizenship concepts right in Edmodo, to help

you get your online classroom community up and running.

Begin building your classroom community with the help of our Getting-Started Activity. You’ll find all of the instructions you need to get your group set up and your

students on Edmodo. Use this first lesson to discuss what it takes to build a positive

online community and how you expect each member of your Edmodo group to

contribute responsibly. Wrap up the activity by collaborating on the We the Digital Citizens Pledge poster and have students sign to solidify their commitment. Then

hang the poster on your classroom wall.

Now you are ready to move on to the five topical modules. Each module includes an

activity in Edmodo to start the conversation about a key concept of digital citizenship.

The activities align with age-appropriate lessons from Common Sense Media’s free

K-12 Digital Literacy and Citizenship curriculum, which you can use both for background

and to delve deeper into each topic.

Use this Digital Citizenship Starter Kit to establish expectations in your classroom

about how your students will engage one another in Edmodo and beyond, as well as

to get acquainted with and make the most of the Edmodo platform.

We also hope this kit helps kick off an ongoing conversation in your classroom about

what it takes to be a good digital citizen. Check out www.commonsense.org/educators

for additional resources to teach digital literacy and citizenship.

Start the ConversationInternet Safety & Security

Teach students to be smart and alert when online. Give

them practical strategies for protecting themselves and

their information as they begin to explore communicating

with others and using the Internet for research, fun,

commerce, and more.

Cyberbullying

Students learn that kindness matters online, just like in

person, and that everyone has a role to play in standing

up to those who use digital technologies to be hurtful or

cause harm. These skills apply to younger students as

well as those in high school, who often see this kind of

online cruelty as “digital drama.”

Relationships & Community

Challenge your students to think about how they relate to

one another through technology — and how they can be

effective, clear, and positive contributors in digital spaces.

Digital Identity

Give students an opportunity to reflect on the role of

media and technology in their lives: how they use it and

Information Literacy

online, as well as being responsible by giving credit for

creative work used.
