Digital Responsibility Contract

​As investors of 21st-century learning, our district encourages teachers to use technology in order to prepare our students to be competitive in the 21st-century job market. It is imperative today that students know and understand how to use technology for academic and professional purposes responsibly.
 
In order to meet my students where they are as a generation, follow the demands of a global society, and follow the technology standards of our district,
I effectively incorporate technology into learning wherever opportunities exist for educational purposes only. This means that on occasion, I assign work digitally and virtually and students are required to turn it in the manner that the instructions require.
This Digital Responsibility Contract is provided to help students and parents better understand their responsibilities. 
1. I will not use technology to do anything harmful (including: sharing personal information about self and others, derogatory comments or bullying).

2. Although colloquial language is standard practice, I will speak and write academically, respecting myself and others when I post images, music, videos or write, and I know that my ability to apply relevant vocabulary, will be rewarded in the improvement of my communication.

3. I will respect other people’s work. When I create projects, I will show where my information and pictures came from. I will always do my own work and not plagiarize the work of others. 
​
4. I will follow ALL school rules when doing work online for academic reasons. 

5. I will not post violent, inappropriate or offensive language, images, videos or music.

6. I will protect the integrity of technology I use (school equipment, programs, software, websites and services used).

7. I will notify an adult for help when needed (if anything is found to be alarming, unsafe or insecure using technology within or outside of school).

8. I know that we will sometimes utilize social media in our class. However, I know that any inappropriateness will not be tolerated.

9. I understand that the school is in no way responsible for repairing or replacing damaged or stolen devices or related technology equipment.

10. I will make it a point to discover new things beyond what I know and have experienced about the world and the people around me in the world!
