Navigating the digital world can be tricky. The Technology Tail is a wonderful resource to help children begin to understand their digital footprint and how the choices they make online can have lasting impacts not only on themselves but others. Full of great talking points and tips, this story shows how our “technology tails” can be given gifts when we make kind, positive posts and bruised or injured when we make negative or hurtful posts. It also has helpful tips for parents and teachers to help promote strong digital citizenship and reinforce online safety.
