Digital Citizenship for Teachers

In an earlier post, I wrote about how important digital citizenship is, and so this will be the baseline for what I am going to talk about. Teachers are no different than their students when it comes to digital citizenship; the teachers must be good citizens of the digital world just like the students they are teaching. Teachers must be examples for their students in the digital world. If students see their teachers being porr citizens, then they will follow that example.

As a future Christian educator, I must realize the importance of really monitering my digital citizenship. Christ calls us to be in the world but not of the world in Romans 12. I am representing Christ in all I do here on the earth, even in the digital world of computers and the Internet. I must do my best to practice being a good citizen of the digital world; in this way, people will hopefully know something is different in my life. This will give me an opportunity to share the gospel and Christ's love to them! I hope my behavior in the digital world as well as in the real world will reflect Christ in my life.
