Show evidence of advocating and modeling safe, ethical, and responsible digital behaviors in creating learning activities.
The Digital Citizenship Lesson Review & Evaluation, AI Facilitation Plan, and Online Teaching Standards Video Reflection collectively demonstrate my commitment to advocating and modeling safe, ethical, and responsible digital behavior. These artifacts show how I help educators and students understand the importance of digital conduct, privacy, and respectful online communication, while also examining my own professional practice through the NSQOL framework. Together, they highlight how ethical technology use requires both clear guidance and consistent modeling. Through this work, I have reinforced the message that digital citizenship is not a one-time lesson, but an ongoing culture that must be intentionally supported across all learning environments.

Digital Citizenship Lesson Review & Evaluation
This Digital Citizenship Lesson Review demonstrates my commitment to promoting and modeling safe, ethical, and responsible digital behavior within online learning environments. By evaluating an existing lesson through the lens of privacy, respectful communication, and responsible technology use, I highlight the essential elements of effective digital citizenship instruction. This project aligns with Program Goal 6 by showing how thoughtful lesson design, clear expectations, and reflective practice help students understand how their digital actions impact themselves and others. Through this work, I emphasize that ethical technology use must be intentionally taught, consistently modeled, and embedded in everyday learning experiences.
AI Facilitation Plan
My AI Professional Learning Facilitation Plan, also featured in Program Goal 2, Program Goal 3, and Program Goal 5, demonstrates a strong commitment to advocating and modeling safe, ethical, and responsible digital behavior. This project guided educators in understanding how AI impacts privacy, academic integrity, equity, and classroom decision-making. By establishing shared norms, addressing risks such as plagiarism and algorithmic bias, and providing teachers with clear modeling strategies, the plan empowers educators to use AI thoughtfully and responsibly. This work reflects my belief that ethical technology use must be explicitly taught, continuously examined, and supported through collaborative professional learning.
01
Addressing Ethical Misuse of AI
Responds to concerns about student plagiarism, uncredited work, and inappropriate reliance on AI tools by guiding teachers on how to set expectations, teach ethical use, and protect academic integrity..
02
Establishing Shared Norms for Responsible AI Use
Helps educators across content areas co-create consistent norms and guiding principles for safe, transparent, and equitable AI practices in the absence of formal district policy.
03
Modeling Ethical AI Practices for Students
Emphasizes the role that teachers play in modeling responsible AI behavior themselves by using AI transparently, crediting its contributions, and integrating it in ways that uphold digital citizenship.
04
Promoting Equity, Privacy, and Bias Awareness
Addresses how AI tools can introduce or amplify inequities, encouraging teachers to examine algorithmic bias, and safeguard student data.
Online Teaching Standards Video Reflection
This reflection video examines my own digital teaching practices through the lens of the NSQOL standards, highlighting how I model the safe, ethical, and responsible behaviors I expect from students. In the video, I reflect on how I communicate online, design accessible learning spaces, manage digital interactions, and uphold professionalism in virtual environments. By openly analyzing my choices as an online educator, the reflection reinforces the idea that digital citizenship is not a single lesson but an ongoing commitment. Featuring this video in my portfolio demonstrates how I continually evaluate and refine my practice to foster respectful, secure, and trustworthy digital learning communities.
