Today's educators are confronted on a daily basis with the challenges of navigating digital resources, tools and technologies with their students.

They are often unprepared for the complexities of these challenges or might not be sure how to engage their students safely and responsibly.

This book serves as a comprehensive guide for educators looking to make informed decisions and navigate digital spaces with their students.

The author sets the stage for educators who may not be familiar with the digital world that their students live in, including the complexities of online identities, digital communities and the world of social media.

With deep dives into how companies track us, how the Internet works, privacy and legal concerns tied to today's digital technologies, strategies for analyzing images and other online sources, readers will gain knowledge about how their actions and choices can affect students' privacy as well as their own.

Each chapter is paired with detailed lessons for elementary, middle and high school students to help guide educators in implementing what they have learned into the classroom.
