Instructional Goals
When collaborating with Ms. Norton, 4th grade teacher, she expressed a concern about
students treating one another kindly when using technology. Bullying is an ongoing
problem in upper grades at Welch Elementary School. She has noticed that these
students within the classroom. Based on this information, we decided to focus our
digital citizenship lessons on cyberbullying. We will focus on identifying cyberbullying
Learner Analysis
The target audience for this digital citizenship lesson is 18 fourth grade students. The
students range from 10 - 12 years of age. This collaborative learning class consists of a
very diverse group of learners. Within this class, 6 receive special education services, 2
ESOL services. 8 of the students are female, while 10 are male. 15 students are
attending school in the classroom setting, face-to-face, while 3 are attending school
virtually. Mrs. Norton’s students are each assigned their own Chromebook and use it
daily for academic purposes within the classroom. They are very familiar with Google
Forms and completing assignments digitally. Speech to text has been added to each
needed.
Task Analysis
For the students to gain an understanding and awareness of cyberbullying, a module of lessons
has been created. These lessons will be delivered in the fourth grade classroom during the skills
block segment of the day. The module will consist of 3 lessons: Digital Citizenship,
Cyberbullying, and Upstander. Prior to beginning the module, students will be given a pre-
assessment to assess prior knowledge. At the completion of the module, a post assessment will
be given to assess content learning. Each lesson will end with a brief, informal assessment. I,
Lesley Walden will serve as the subject matter expert for this module. As an elementary teacher
and student of the instructional technology master’s program, I have extensive knowledge of the
necessary skills needed to create and deliver this digital citizenship module . The SME has
experience with Weebly, Google, Nearpod, and Padlet. The SME also has the knowledge and
skills needed to create and incorporate additional resources needed to accompany these
(Appendix A) prior to the introduction. This will allow for a true assessment of prior
knowledge.

a. Hook
i. SME will deliver the hook face to face to the students before beginning
the module. “Good Morning, boys and girls! I am so excited for you to
some fun activities for you to work on through a website module. In these
lessons, you will learn what cyberbullying is, how to identify a cyberbully
Let’s get started. You will find the link to begin the modules in your
completely before moving to the next. I cannot wait to hear your thoughts
and of all the great things you will learn when you are done.”

v. Exit Assessment
Assessment
1. Students will be given a pre-assessment before beginning the module to assess prior
learning. (Appendix D)
5. At the completion of the module, students will complete a Google Form to assess
introduce the topic and provide a demonstration of how to maneuver through the
module. The introduction will consist of a hook to get the students excited about their
learning. Following the introduction, students will log into the module through the
link provided within their google classroom. Students will begin with lesson 1.
and 3. At the completion of the module, students will take the exit assessment to
assess their understanding of the content learned within the entire module.
Data from the lesson assessments will be collected and analyzed to assess the learning of that
particular lesson. Data from the pre-assessment and exit assessment will be used to evaluate the
knowledge gained from the entire module. Analyzing this data will assist in providing feedback
on ways to improve the module and provide further instruction where needed. Data will be
organized in the form of a graph or chart to provide a visual for the data.
Reflection
Overall, I feel that this was a successful digital citizenship unit. The students seemed to enjoy
the topic and were even using the word “cyberbullying” throughout the week. When comparing
the pre-assessment with the post assessment, it shows that knowledge was gained within the
content objectives.
There are a few improvements that I feel could be made to the unit. First, I feel that the unit was
too long. The students began lesson 1 very eager to learn, but as the lessons progressed, they
rushed through it or didn’t complete it at all. Many informed their teacher that they had
completed the module, but none of the assessments were done. The majority of the students
were unenthusiastic about completing the assessments at the end lessons. This made it difficult
to obtain accurate data. Another improvement I would make is to disable the ability to move to
the next activity before completing the first. I feel that this may prevent students from skipping
As a whole, this digital collaborative unit was successful. The data show that 90% of the
students understand how to identify a cyberbully and what to do when a cyberbullying situation
arises. The students were able to successfully identify the meaning of an upstander and super
digital citizen. I look forward to creating and implementing digital units in the future. As a
teacher of multiple grade levels, I feel this would be a very efficient resource to use within my
classroom.
