The lesson begins with a group discussion to define digital citizenship and its significance in today’s online environment, followed by an introduction to cyberbullying, including its various forms and impacts on individuals.
Students will watch a short video illustrating cyberbullying and participate in small group activities where they role-play scenarios related to the topic. This exercise encourages them to depict both the bullying incident and a respectful response, promoting positive online behavior.
The lesson concludes with individual reflections in which students express how they can exemplify good digital citizenship and combat cyberbullying. Students will also create awareness posters to reinforce the lesson's concepts in the classroom. By the end of the session, students will have gained valuable insights into responsible online behavior and strategies for addressing cyberbullying.
