Explain what a digital footprint is

Explain what digital citizenship means

Give some positive examples of digital citizenship

Extra points if you explain how digital citizenship is related to social responsibility or social contracts **Digital Footprint / Digital Citizenship**

A Digital Footprint is when you visit a website and the information from your computer is left on that website. It is usually a code for anything that uses internet, but it may be a name. So, if I were to go onto facebook, they would at least be able to have the number/ code. They might have the name of the owner or where the owner lives.

A Digital Citizen is someone who is kind to others that use the World Wide Web. A digital citizen is also someone who defends other people who aren't digital citizens.

For Example; If someone was on Facebook and/ or MySpace and they start chatting with someone that don't care for but they at least act like they're interested in the conversation, I think that would a somewhat good example of someone thats a Digital Citizen because they chose to be nice to this person and be a little interested in what they were talking about instead of bullying that person because they don't like them.

An Example of negative of digital citizenship is if someone was on, for example, MySpace and someone that they usually don't really talk to starts talking to them and the main person starts to bully them. That would be a negative example because that is not what digital citizenship is about and that is actually the opposite.

Assignment: DigiTeen Introduction
After reading some introductions from other students in the project:

1. Look at the rubric so that you will know how the introduction will be graded (advanced is worth the most points, beginning is worth the least points). 2. Write 5 - 10 (or more) sentences to introduce yourself. 3. Pay particular attention to correct spelling, capitalization and punctuation - this is SCHOOL WRITING, not TEXT writing.



//Hi, My name is Madison. I like drawing and softball. I might try out for volleyball next year, but I'm not so sure yet. I will be turning 13 on January 13th, 2011. I am really excited for my golden birthday! Another thing about me is that I have a lot of nick-names. My most recent one is Teddy Bear. Long story about how I got that one. Mainly because I comfort people when they have a problem or something bad happens to them. I have four siblings. Two younger and two older. I live with my mom and my step dad. Well, Now you know a bit about me! Thanks for reading!//
