 Digital Citizenship

Digital Citizenship implies recognizing the impact that the virtual world has on ourselves and others. Applications, web tools, extensions, and add-ons are fantastic digital tools that can help us transform teaching and learning by being able to do things that were not before possible.  However, they do come with responsibilities.  Whenever teachers and students use a digital tool,  they must be aware of privacy and security issues with the Freedom of Information and Privacy Protection Act (FOIPPA) and have yearly parental consent in many cases.  Both teachers and students have an obligation to learn how to keep themselves and their data safe online. 

For Teachers

Watch this video for a better understanding of your role as a teacher when working with technology in your classroom practice with students. ​
District Policies
Students and teachers must be aware of policies governing privacy and conduct while using district technology equipment.

School District #22 Code of Conduct
Student and Staff Access to Networked Information Resources
Social Media Use 
Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy ​​
Consent Forms
 Office 365 and Google Accounts will be created as part of school registration. No further action is needed.
All other applications that store or transmit any student data or personal data, including software, web tools, extensions, and add-ons, must have a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) completed and then accepted into the district list of approved digital tools and require yearly permission from parents. To know if something is approved for use, please review the list found at Software and Digital ToolsSD22Learns.ca - Digital Transformation - Software Requests. If it is not currently approved for use, you may complete the PIA found on the same page.

Parental Consent to have students use digital tools/software must be reviewed annually in September. This is an opt out process.

Here is the notice that must be sent home: digitaltools.software.annualreview.pdf.

Any families who choose to opt-out must provide written notice which must be recorded in MyEd BC as follows:
  • Opt out of Google Services: Misc 6, EA2, Google Account Sync indicator
  • Opt out of all digital tools/software: Misc 7, EA3, Web tool permissions indicator

Teachers can run the "Field Set" in MyEd named "SD22 Google/Digital tools/Software Opt Out" to see family responses. To run a Field Set, Staff View>Student Top tab>Field Set = above
There is only created a “NO” for both so if nothing is showing, then it is a Yes. 

Additional info can be found HERE.​
Privacy Impact Assessments
A Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) looks to make sure that digital tools we choose to use comply with the spirit of FOIPPA.  A PIA looks at where data is stored and shared as well as factors such as anti-bullying measures, and the ability to control what data is collected.  The approved digital tools are ones that limit the information shared well.  If you would like to use any software, not currently approved by the district, you must complete a new PIA. For more information, please see our Software Request page. 
SD22 Teacher Resources
BC's Digital Literacy Framework identifies the types of knowledge and skills learners need to be successful in the 21st century. Take a look at this resource to see the skills by grade level along with appropriate resources.
