Digital Citizenship Inside 8th Grade

What is so great about digital citizenship, anyways?  What exactly IS it?

Well, digital citizenship happens to be a very important part of society, for young and old.  It is the mannerisms of the internet, the etiquette of the online cyber world.  Just as we have a certain way we are supposed to behave in the real world, there are certain ways we should behave online as well.  Mostly, these rules are for our own sake, to keep us safe from online predators, viruses, and, most prominently, bullies. Not only does it protect us from such dangers, it also is for us to expand our knowledge and learn how to appropriately interact with people online.
