 * Welcome to the DigiCit Wiki**

The DigiCit wiki site was created to serve as an ongoing resource for instructional technology professionals in higher education, K-12, and other academic organizations. The development of the site was inspired by a joint article written for TechTrends magazine, a publication of the Association of Educational Communications and Technology. The article is part of a special edition of TechTrends geared toward the media specialist and school librarian membership of AECT and the School Media and Technology Division of AECT. The article was based on varied interviews with academic professionals and specialists in digital citizenship and through an online survey with media specialist/instructional technology professionals. Our article is entitled //Digital Citizenship: It Takes a Village// and is linked below.

Please feel free to explore this site and to contact us if we may offer any support or share ideas. We also encourage you to share your experiences regarding digital citizenship in k-12 in both the discussion forum and our online survey. We feel that the need for an effective and safe digital world will rely on all of us, as a "village".
