What is School? “Cyberbullying, Digital Citizenship, Privacy and Safety”

#whatisschool is ready to talk everything about Digital Citizenship and Cyber Safety this week as I am joined by the co-founder of our chat, Laura Hill.

Cyberbullying, Privacy, and Safety are just some of the digital dilemmas challenging the world’s schools. At the same time, technology continues to expand and enhance the ways students can learn, connect, create, and collaborate. How do we help instill a sense of global citizenship, of civic-mindedness, and respect on the internet? What are some of the best strategies you have seen in practice in your school communities?

Join us as we explore ways to increase student community and communication while decreasing the negative and sometimes deadly impact cyberbullying can have.
