Element 8: Digital Rights and Respnsibility
Digital Rights and Responsibility are those
requirements and freedoms extended to everyone in a digital world. This area
of Digital Citizenship is about helping students understand that when they
are provided opportunities, such as the access to the Internet and use of
online products, they need to be diligent in helping others as well, such as
informing adults of potential problems. Educators must help students
understand that protecting others both online and in the real world are
essential skills to have.
