Free Digital Literacy curriculum + lessons keyed to Common Core


Common Sense Media [a 501(c)3 non-profit] offers a FREE Digital Literacy and Citizenship Curriculum to help educators empower their students and their school communities to be safe, responsible, and savvy as they navigate this fast-paced digital world.  Their interactive scope & sequence makes it easy to map out a digital citizenship lesson plan for your students. Click a topic to highlight the lessons that best suit your needs, or just browse by grade band. The cross-curricular units spiral to address digital literacy and citizenship topics in an age-appropriate way. 

Here's a sample of one their lessons; Identifying high quality sites. I've downloaded all of the current lessons and placed them onto CDs.  If you would like a copy, send me an email.
