Introduction and Rationale
Welcome
My name is Amy Singh (@asingh2) and I am currently working toward my Masters of Education in Curriculum & Instruction.
I have been a Teacher-Librarian in an elementary setting for the last 6 years, and have worked to teach digital citizenship with many students in that time. The new Digital Citizenship Education in Saskatchewan Schools document has given some concrete ideas to more effectively teach these skills across the grade levels.
This site is meant to coincide with the continuum provided and to use resources along with lesson plan ideas to teach these skills in an authentic, on-going manner.
Our society has transformed into the 'digital age' and it is not going away. As teachers and parents, it is imperative that we are teaching these skills and implications of the use of technology to our students so they make appropriate online choices.
Please visit the Teacher Information page to find curricular connections and guiding plans to coincide with each grade level page, as well as some background information pieces for teachers, administrators and parents about the importance of teaching digital citizenship.
