Teaching Digital Citizenship: Digital Drama Unplugged

How can you de-escalate digital drama so it doesn't go too far? Watch a digital citizenship lesson in action! See how Carmen Martinez, counselor at Takoma Park Middle School for Maryland's Montgomery County Public Schools, teaches students the "Digital Drama Unplugged" lesson from Common Sense Education. Students explore how miscommunication is a common occurrence online and on social media. Through scenarios and role-playing, students identify ways to avoid online drama in the first place and to de-escalate drama when it happens.
