DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP

44. DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP
Having available access to the Internet and digital resources means you have responsibilities in the digital world. Throughout the year, you’ll learn more about digital citizenship and what it means to be a responsible Internet user. These topics matter to you today:
Keeping your Passwords Secure
Responsible Online Activity
Resources on StudentNet for Citing Others’ Work
Digital Citizenship Slide 1 of 5

45. Keep your passwords safe
It’s important to keep your passwords safe.
Do not share your password with anyone except your parents (not your best friend, boyfriend/girlfriend, brother/sister – parents only).
Do not write your password down and stick it in a safe. Remember it!
Do not log into a computer and then let someone else use it. You will be held responsible for anything another person does when you are logged in.
Do not leave your computer unattended while logged in. Log out if you have to leave your Tablet PC.
Digital Citizenship Slide 2 of 5

46. Be responsible online
Everything you post or do online has value or use to someone.
In some ways, that’s helpful:
Ads that are targeted to your interests
Ideas for products to design
Communication through social media
But information can be used in negative, sometimes criminal ways:
By someone who wants to embarrass or bully you
By plagiarists who want to claim your content as their own
By companies who want to use your information in ways that affect you negatively
UPDATES
Digital Citizenship Slide 3 of 5

47. Be responsible online
Negative online activity can have consequences you don’t want.
Universities and colleges may not accept you.
Companies may reject your job application or find reasons to fire you.
Criminals build profiles of people to scam identities, hack, steal property, physically harm others, and more.
Insurance companies use information posted online in blogs, Facebook, Instagram, etc. to deny coverage of medical and auto claims.
Be aware of the use and value that your online presence and actions have for others and act with them in mind. Be responsible online.
Digital Citizenship Slide 4 of 5

48. Responsible use includes academic integrity
Easy access to resources makes it easy to create better products than you can sometimes do on your own. While using others’ resources makes your work better, be sure to credit your sources.
Citation Generators on StudentNet
make it easier to cite sources.
Online Resources available on StudentNet
and the campus library website often
provide citations for you in copy –
paste format.

51. The Five Day Rule and Work Order Request
As soon as you know there is something wrong with your Tablet PC, submit a work order through StudentNet.
You MUST turn in a work order within FIVE days of the accident or malfunction. Failure to do so may result in you paying for the repair.
You can turn in a work order on any computer on campus – your Tablet PC, a computer in a classroom, a library computer, etc.
