Before embarking on any internet or technology-based lessons, I make sure that my students (and their parents, through contact on Skyward and postings on my website) have clear guidelines: things they MUST do, things they MAY do, and things they MAY NOT do. The "digital citizenship musts" are to keep things academic (language, topic, behavior) for an academic purpose, to stay safe (don't click randomly -- in fact, don't do ANYTHING randomly!), and to analyze their purpose and sources. The Digital Citizenship's Nine Elements would be a great resource to share with them to better outline my requirements.
