The importance of these tips on digital citizenship is an
absolute necessary topic because of the almost universal connection of today's
students. As illustrated in the following poster: 95% of teenagers are using
the internet.
Being a good citizen in the digital age is
basically the same as being a good citizen in personal contact relationships; showing respect when interacting with others, following societal rules for health and safety, and treating others as you want to be treated. The danger in the digital world is the seemingly distant connection, which can lead to individuals
not seeing the repercussions from their actions and not realizing potential dangers because of anonymity. The following video makes the
point that your actions have an effect on others even at a distance.

The following cartoon on negative posting and its effects drives home the point!!
