What is Digital Citizenship Week?
Each year during the third full week of October, Common Sense Media leads Digital Citizenship Week, an annual campaign to promote a healthy, balanced, and positive approach to media and tech use among young people.
This year we’ve got brand-new resources to support students’ digital well-being in the age of AI. See below for our calendars full of suggested activities for each grade level, K–12, as well as events, free PD courses, a fun social media challenge, and more!
