As more students spend large chunks of study and leisure time online, schools across the USA are adding coursework focused on privacy, cyberbullying and electronic plagiarism.
Many schools not only are incorporating Internet safety into lesson plans but also shifting their focus from the pervasive stranger danger message typically given to young computer users.
The idea, says Principal Chris Lehmann of Philadelphias Science Leadership Academy, is teaching students to be better digital citizens. Freshmen at his public high school are required to take a course in how to watch their digital footprint in other words, to be careful what they say on the Internet.
All of the drama, all of the growing up, all of the growing pains, all of the things we know happen in high school now also happen digitally, Lehmann says. Think of every mistake you made as a teenager. Now imagine making that mistake in a permanent public forum.
Many schools around the country have adopted similar coursework. For instance, at Schwenksville Elementary School near Philadelphia, librarian Joan Curtis teaches fifth-graders how to recognize bogus websites using a fake but realistic Librarian of the Year site she created.
