I am interested and following this thread.

I am currently teaching a Digital Literacy middle school course that I
revised using resources from Common Sense and DigitalSkills.org. I named
the course Digital Literacy as I agree media literacy, digital citizenship,
internet safety, and information literacy are all subsets. I plan to
"tweek" the course again this year from what I learn from The News Literacy
Project, etc.

I am happy to share. There are many files, so advice on how to do that
would be appreciated.

I look forward to brainstorming, collaborating, and support with this
curriculum development.
