I finally got around to making starter pack! These folks are working hard to ensure all students have access to high quality digital citizenship education & can think critically and ethically in a digital world.

I’ll continue to update the list; let me know who I’ve missed!

What a great overview of Bluesky for educators @jcasatodd.bsky.social !!

Now that we’ve arrived on #EduSky our next step has to be to remind edu-friends not just to “follow” people but to amplify/repost good ideas and share resources of our own

🤖 Google has lots of AI-powered tools to support learning.

Here are 8 I saw at the "Learning in the AI Era" event at Google HQ recently:

1️⃣ NotebookLM

Add sources (PDFs, textbook chapters, videos, etc.). Ask about them in a chat. Create a podcast-style audio overview. 🤯

Digital citizenship needs to examine how and why artifacts are made, who benefits from use, scope of use, and how tech companies handle use. With the availability and ease of use of powerful tools (e.g., AI, art, social media, etc) #digcit should focus on ethics of tech use and impacts of misuse.

Thanks for following me back! This feels so much like Twitter when I started in 2009… although now with the benefit of hindsight. So good to stumble upon familiar faces in this emerging constellation! I so very much look forward to continuing learning with/from you all!🙏
