​Date:Saturday April 1, 2017
Time:9:00amPT/10:00amMT/
11:00amCT/12:00pm ET
Location: Blackboard Collaborate








We are so excited to welcome Curran Dee as our special guest presenter for this webinar on April 1, 2017 in his presentation entitled "Digital Citizenship from a Kid's Perspective." Curran will be sharing information about DigCitKids which was co-created with his mom as a forum for digital citizenship for kids by kids. He'll be sharing his experiences and projects with @digcitkids including their pledge and monthly challenges which are designed to amplify student voice and leadership

Curran is the Chief Kid Officer of DigCitKids (digcitkids.com) who advocates for parents and children to learn alongside each other to develop skills digital natives and digital immigrants alike need to use on a daily basis. His past advocacy work includes Twitter chats, a TEDxYouth speech in Burlington, Mass. Most recently,  Curran was interviewed on TeacherCast discussing the idea of kids as global citizens.  “When kids are passionate about creating change, they need to learn with the world. That happens digitally,” he said. “I think even kids in elementary school should be able to have a voice and be able to make connections beyond the classroom walls.” In the future, he has plans to do workshops offline that will help kids of all ages connect, collaborate, learn, understand and solve problems safely through offline activities and online discussions. 

Curran works alongside his mom, Marialice B.F.X. Curran, Ph.D., founder of the Digital Citizenship Institute and co­founder of the Digital Citizenship Summit, both based in Connecticut. Dr. Curran has partnered with her ten-year old and the two are recognized professionally as a mother/son digital citizenship team. The dynamic duo model best practices while working with parents, educators, students and community organizations. “As a teacher, principal and associate professor, my most rewarding work has been advocating with my son as he paves the way for a new generation.”  Teachers, parents, students, colleges and ed/tech industry experts are learning from their example. “Our mission at DigCitKids is to keep asking a wider audience, ‘How are you using technology every day to make a difference for your community, for other kids and for the world?’ and then showing them how to get started,” She is passionate about empowering students around the world with positive and practical solutions.  An international speaker and named one of the Top 10 Digital Citizenship bloggers to follow in 2014 by Common Sense Media, Curran co-founded (2011) and moderates the digital citizenship #digcit chat on Twitter and also serves on the leadership team for the Digital Citizenship PLN through ISTE.
