Digital Citizenship Ready

     Would we put students behind the wheel of a car without first teaching them how to use it?  That is an easy answer, but in a month or so many teachers will do something even more destructive by turning students loose on the internet without any instructions on how to safely use it. Not only do they need to use it at school, but understanding how to be safe and efficient online might be one of the most important skills we can teach students for the 21st century.  There are tons of links and resources on the internet to do this, but most of the time when I check them out I am disappointed or it requires massive amounts of planning time to teach the lessons. The site ThinkB4U is the best I have ever seen. The site is laid out well, easy to use and follow, and very relative to what students are facing today online.
