Digital Citizenship Week- Day 1
Thought of the Day:
To keep safe when you are using social media, emailing, or texting, only share your username with people you trust. Don’t share it on gaming sites, or when you buy things. Don’t share it if you get a phishing email. Phishing email will seem to be from someone who already knows about you, or is part of something that you already participate in, but is sent just to gather information about you. Be careful with your username.
Question of the Day:
What accounts and usernames do you have and are they safe?

Digital Citizenship Week- Day 2
Thought of the Day:
It’s a little scary to say, but some people troll social media, looking for information about you. They can use it in a lot of ways, to impersonate you, or to hide their own identity, or to do damage to you. Don’t give out information on social media or gaming sites about your hobbies, trips you might take, your school, places you might be, or your regular schedule. Have your parents help you to remove location tagging from photos you take. Keep your private life private.
Question of the Day:
What information or pictures can you find online about the people in your family?

Digital Citizenship Week- Day 3
Thought of the Day:
Anything you post on the internet is permanent. Even if you remove it soon after, someone else may have already shared it or copied it and saved it to share later. Think it over very carefully before you hit the enter, post or share button, is this how you want the whole world to know you, for now, and forever? Create a positive footprint online.
Question of the Day:
How do you know what is good to share and what is not?

Digital Citizenship Week- Day 4
Thought of the Day:
If you are bullied, or threatened on social media, or if you receive emails, or ads, or photos that make you feel uncomfortable, save the evidence, tell an adult, and don’t respond. Be prepared to react appropriately to others who misuse social media. You are a nice person. Think about the effect the things you post can have on others. Remember that if you bully others, or pull pranks online, such as impersonating others, or making fake accounts, you may have serious consequences even as serious as being in trouble with the police. Try to always speak online as you would in a face to face conversation, with respect and courtesy. Be Nice.
Question of the Day:
What should do if you or a friend are cyber-bullied? What shouldn’t you do if you or a friend are cyber-bullied?
