Week 5 - Why is it important to be a good digital citizen? What value does a
good digital reputation have?
It is important to
be a good digital citizen because of the changes in the world towards a
complete technology based background. The internet is the most used source in
the world. Almost every person in the world uses the internet for some type of
method from business to personal use. Teachers use the web for lesson plans,
tutorials, power point presentations and even games for the students. I created
a prezi for the first time and enjoyed the process as well as presenting the prezi.
The prezi is another way to explain information that connects the important
information that you are trying to relay. Email, Facebook, and Twitter are the “in”
thing now and it is important to have a good reputation from what you say and
do on each one of these web based sources. Employers and just people in general
in the world look at these sites and formulate opinions about individuals off
of these sites. As a teacher it is important to remember that the students, of
course, will check and see if you are on Facebook or Twitter and keep up with
who you are and what you are doing. Good digital citizenship allows me and
others to be able to participate in online classes and make it a great
environment. To be working online with
other students and teachers without worrying about information that may be
found about me is the best part of having good digital citizenship.
