About the webinar

We’re all citizens of our country, state, and city. Beyond those borders, we are all digital citizens of the web. The posts, tweets, and other communications you create, the websites you visit, purchases you make online, and the security measures you use to secure it all together represent you as a digital citizen. Every user of the Internet leaves behind some type of a permanent presence or a digital footprint that cannot be undone. In some cases, you may not even be in control of the digital footprint the world sees.

This presentation will cover some of the basic, but critical responsibilities necessary to be an informed and responsible digital citizen so that you leave the digital footprint you want.

We will be recording the webinar, so feel free to enjoy the presentation knowing that you can see the recording at a later date.

Intended Audience

All Audiences. The content will be introductory (e.g., > “101 level”)

Crista Mohammed Receives STC Distinguished SIG Service Award

We are proud to announce that our SIG Newsletter manager, Crista Mohammed, has received the STC Distinguished SIG Service Award (DSSA). The DSSA, Distinguished Chapter Service Awards, and Distinguished Community Service for Students Awards are given annually by STC to members who have offered extensive service and exemplary commitment to their communities. Each community nominates one or more of its members for an award. The nominations are submitted to STC and evaluated, and nominee recommendations are presented to the STC board of directors for approval.

Crista took on the job of Managing Editor and revived the IDL SIG newsletter, “IDeaL: Design for Learning,” at a time when everything was changing. She learned WordPress from the ground up and managed the conversion from a PDF-by- email format to our new online newsblog. And she did it from Trinidad, where she has to stay up late at night to join SIG conference calls.

She continues to show a high level of professionalism and stamina when quarterly, she has to request articles from SIG members and leaders (which can be like pulling teeth!)

Crista’s citation reads:

For your ingenuity and dedication in bringing the “IDeaL: Design for Learning” newsletter back to life in its online incarnation.

Our deepest thanks to Crista for her service to the IDL SIG — and heartiest congratulations on your well-deserved DSSA award!
