#8 Digital Citizenship Lesson for Freshman :
Review Lesson and Your Online Code

Lesson Overview:  Students review targets of previous lessons, are able to explain what it means to be a good digital citizenship, review the Acceptable Use Policy Agreements, and draft their own “Online Code.” This should prepare them for taking the test.


  1. Divide Students into groups of 4-5 –ideally one person in each group has a  smart device/phone (if they want to review lessons on Toolbox)


  1. Hand out Acceptable Use Student Pledge and Learning Target Handout and Blank Paper or if you want have them go to a shared Google Doc You can set up


  1. Deliver Instructions—Review the Targets  Handout  in your group & Review Your Pledge


  1. Students come up with (teacher’s choice)  multiple choice questions for another group or a few Principles for their ONLINE CODE OF CONSCIENCE, TIPS AND TRICKS


  1. Rotate through the groups and have each share out one question for the rest of the groups to answer or one Principle of the Code that  You record in front of class.


  1. Rotate through the groups a  3 times and make sure you push kids to represent the topics not yet covered.  




  1. ALTERNATELY- DO NOT LET THEM SEE/REVIEW PLEDGE or let them review lessons, but make them only use their notes—and they create a new pledge for students that reflects lessons, advice, tips.
