New Toolkit for Educators on Cyberbullying, Digital Citizenship

Cyberbullying What Is It?

Common Sense Media has just released a new toolkit on cyberbullying available at no cost to K-12 educators.
The toolkit, part of a comprehensive digital literacy and citizenship initiative Commonsense Media launched last year, offers lesson plans on cyberbullying organized by grade level, as well as parent education materials.
As the materials point out, many educators find themselves thrown into the role of digital referee or security expert without training. Teachers are also called upon to counsel parents worried about their kids behavior and safety online.  | Spotlight on Digital Media and Learning.
