Participate 1.1.1 Character Traits Quest

What are the three most impressive character traits of an exemplary citizen within a digital learning community?

As an educator, it is important for me to be able to effectively define, communicate, and most importantly model appropriate character traits of digital citizenship. As with other ways in which I impact my students, the way in which I conduct myself in the ever-changing online world is crucial for future generations of learners. 

The 3 Most Important Character Traits Are:
  • Respect- respect for self, for others, and for any content posted/shared. This includes keeping personal information private and knowing what is appropriate to share via the digital learning community.
  • Honesty - using digital property in an honest fashion- not stealing the work of others, not damaging the property of others, and not claiming the identity of others. Also, making sure as a digital learner that appropriate measures are taken to protect yourself and the work that you create.
  • Educate - educating yourself on effective ways of communicating with others, learning new technology as it becomes available, sharing your learning in the digital world, and overall working to be a literate digital citizen.
