Rights and Responsibilities

Ann Stein
I think so many people are impulsive in their decision making, that digital citizenship becomes even more important.  Words and actions have power to lift people up or pull them down and do damage. Unfortunately, many kids ( and adults) don't realize this until the damage has been done.  It is important to teach kids very specifically the dangers and pitfalls of technology. There are so many realms that this falls into, from bullying, personal safety, as well as personal life skills such as goal setting.  Technology is a great tool when used appropriately, but everyone needs to see it as a responsibility that goes along with the privilege of using it.
