ADAPTED FROM MS. PEDLEY 10 TH GRADE ENGLISH Digital Citizenship: Digital Etiquette Webquest

Introduction As you all know we will be working with Googledocs this year so we can share documents digitally. What you may not know is everything you do is left on the internet even if you think it is deleted. This is called your digital footprint. Things you do when you were fifteen may come back to haunt you when you are twenty-five and looking for a job. We are going to explore safe ways to use the internet and learn what is appropriate to post. On top of researching what is appropriate to post, you will research what sort of digital behavior is appropriate and in what setting. Ex: using your phone in a restaruant.

Your Task It is your job to research digital etiquette. Topics  When and where to use technology  What is “safe” or appropriate to post on personal sites such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Snapchat  Professional ways to communicate, i.e. an to your boss  Appropriate response times for technology: The time frame in which it is considered polite to respond to s Criteria  Give at least 10 rules of digital etiquette that you find most important  Find an example of someone getting in trouble in their life or job due to lack of etiquette  Presentations must be completed on Powerpoint or Prezi  Cite your sources
