Technology advancements are on the rise yet many individuals are not aware of the impact of their digital footprint. Digital citizenship is directly linked to your online reputation and one must be extremely careful when posting online. #IDTiPs#EDUC5131#BeAware
"Give a Man a Fish, and You Feed Him for a Day. Teach a Man To Fish, and You Feed Him for a Lifetime" As educators, we need to create rich tasks that will encourage our students to learn, explore, and be motivated to learn. #IDTiPs#EDUC5131
We are fortunate in Canada to have a Canadian Teachers’ Federation who will back up our teachers and guide them through the learning process of cyber bullying- what it is, who are the main targets, and what to do if you’re a students’/parents’ target. #IDTiPs#EDUC5131
I truly believe that most teenagers and even adults are addicted to the technology whether that be video games, social media, Netflix, etc. I hope that we see a drastic shift away from technology and see kids playing outside and running around instead of behind screens. #IDTiPs
As teachers, we have to wear our teacher hat 24/7. You never know who's around and with social media, you have to be extremely careful of what you post and your privacy settings. Also, most of my students have devices and can snap a picture in seconds. #IDTiPs#EDUC5131
"As technology becomes increasingly advanced and prevalent in today’s society, access to these resources is becoming essential to learning. As digital technologies are becoming essential to the classroom, a gap in access to the Internet is forming." #IDTiPs#EDUC5131
It is more important than ever to teach our students respect, to always give it their best, that everyone is a team, mistakes are a learning curve, and that we celebrate everyones success. These six simple statements are often forgotten on social media and video games. #IDTiPs
"The vast majority of young people now carry devices on which they play games, listen to music, and, in many cases, connect to the Internet and watch videos. Over the past five years, laptop, cell phone, and iPod ownership has exploded."- GENERATION M2

With the rise in technology, it makes it easier to share resources and classroom notes. The mimio smart board along with GAFE allows me to share my notes from the board to all my students through my google classroom. #EDUC5313#IDTiPs#mimio#GAFE
We live in a culture of constant availability! We feel obligated to answer every phone call and reply to every message within seconds. This puts a burden of stress and negatively impacts our mental health. Check out my blog posts at : https://t.co/hA9m1NbOps #IDTiPs#CBU5131
I think that most of the rules and manners we learn at a young age from our elementary teachers and parents can go a long way in the online world. #rulesofnetiquette#IDTiPs
Educators still mistake digital citizenship with online safety. While teaching about crafting strong passwords and refraining from posting inappropriate pictures online is important, it’s no longer enough.- It's time to commit to digital citizenship! #IDTiPs
