Dear Colleagues - FYI. 

Join us for the 1st Annual Digital Citizenship Summit on Saturday, 

October 3, 2015 at the University of Saint Joseph in West Hartford, 

Connecticut.  This inaugural event is being sponsored by The School of 

Education, The Office of Student Affairs and The Office of 

Informational Technology and will engage students, teachers, parents, 

administrators and policy makers in an exciting conversation focused on 

digital citizenship.

 

Digital Citizenship is the term for appropriate, responsible tech and 

Internet use. Similar to the rights and responsibilities involved in 

being a citizen, there are legal and ethical obligations with being a 

digital citizen. Topics include digital literacy, etiquette, wellness, 

security, and law. The aim of the Digital Citizenship Summit is to 

create positive, practical solutions along with amplifying the overall 

message of improving tech usage. What happens in digital citizenship 

tomorrow is decided today.

 

 

This ALL DAY event will gather a diverse range of leaders from around 

the country to discuss digital citizenship and push forward bold new ideas.

This can¹t-be-missed summit will include a continental breakfast with 

networking, a panel discussion, breakaway sessions, lunch, a keynote 

talk TED-style, and a social event to connect with all the fascinating 

big thinkers across the country who are pivotal in shaping digital 

citizenship.
