Rather than simply tell students "don't talk to strangers" and "don't reveal personal information" online, educators need to be discussing (as the ProTechT teachers are with their students) issues surrounding the ethical uses of digital technologies and the impacts those uses can have not only at a personal level, but also on larger scales.

"To whom much is given, much is expected." This wise saying applies well to our digital infoverse.

How are you going to answer all the questions students have at your school about the safe, ethical, and appropriate uses of digital technologies? Not only do you NOT have time to address these within your alloted class time, you also likely will encounter questions for which you are unsure of the answer. Consider building on the outstanding work of the students and teachers in the ProTechT 2008 project. Invite members of your community as well as students to respond to these questions and then share answers to them using a variety of new media technologies, and post both questions and answers on a "Digital Citizenship FAQ" page linked from your school website. The "demonstration effect" of using these digital media tools for constructive and safe learning may be more powerful and important than you or your students anticipated.

We hear a fair bit about "Internet safety" in educational technology circles today, and more schools are starting to address online safety issues with students. Many of these presentations do not delve into the rights and responsibilities which accompany technology use, however, as discussions about digital citizenship naturally invite. Rather than simply tell students "don't talk to strangers" and "don't reveal personal information" online, educators need to be discussing (as the ProTechT teachers are with their students) issues surrounding the ethical uses of digital technologies and the impacts those uses can have not only at a personal level, but also on larger scales.
