Are you aware of what's going on in the gaming world?
Dear Mom and Dad,
We want you to be aware and notice what the pros and cons of
multiplayer gaming. As a 12/13 year old, we know what awareness is
about and we need to share that to you. We just need to let you know that

need to inform you with as well as the positives.

-the lit path of the digital world-
What I like about being a digital citizen is.....
● The internet helps me so much, its practically a library of
knowledge!
● There's a range of different media and information in one.
● I can socialize with friends on the other side of the world
even though there's it feels like just a screen in separating
us!
● travel to a festival of music, socialize online, meet up with friends

4. Being a digital citizen
Do you think we can learn by just an open textbook in front
of us?
Have you ever thought about how boring it is in life without
feeling connected to the digital world? A big swirly
emptiness inside you is how it feels.
Being a digital citizen is about using a program or
application on the computer, iPad, phone, apple device or
any kind of web-related program.
