My Take
I love everything about this program. I would like to see some updated videos soon as the technology has changed. And when the videos are finished I don't like how they display the year. It makes me feel like I am outdated in my resources. I would also like every time cell phone is stated to be changed to "device." Not all kids have cell phones but almost every kid has access to a device that connects to the internet through wifi.
How I Use It
I use this website after I have delivered teacher led lessons related to digital citizenship. I unlock the activities as students complete the lessons with me. I leave the activities open for repeated play and suggest that the students go home and teacher their parents how to play the aciivities too.

Great interactive game to teach students leadership!!!
Overall i belive that its an effective tool for teachers to use so that students are always familiar with technology and how to use it it with integrity and how to follow the laws of respect online.What i liked about the games were that they were Interactive while also providing useful information wich could keep the students engaged. What I didn’t like is that they should make the games more fit for all ages because yes i know the games/ graphics are meant for early education, this activity should be available for all ages and the game should change depending on who’s using it.

This was a game that caused frustration for students using it.
I think this could be a great teaching resource if it was tweaked quite a bit. First of all, not every school has brand new computers. We don't always receive money to purchase technology. This year is the first year I've actually been told there is money in the budget and I could use it for technology. The game needs to work with older machines and cannot freeze up as often as it does.

My students and I love Digital Passport! I have been using it with my intermediate students for the last four years! The lesson plans, video, and games are very engaging and instructional. It grabs each students' attention and gives them important info
I find Digital Passport to be a great way to introduce my students to digital citizenship and digital literacy. I am a technology teacher at an urban elementary school and this type of instruction is crucial to my students who may not get the parental guidance, about technology, at home.
My only gripe would be the game that goes with Privacy. This is a very important concept for students but the game is very difficult to manipulate and many students including me are unable to complete the lesson because of the game.
