PROFESSOR RELEASES NEW SOCIAL MEDIA TEXTBOOK TO CELEBRATE DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP WEEK 

Denver, CO  -- October 15-19, 2018 has been dubbed Digital Citizenship Week. First initiated by San Francisco-based Common Sense Education, in 2013, Digital Citizenship Week was created to focus on the role that technology plays in the everyday lives of not just students, but families, schools and the global community.

In recognition of Digital Citizenship Week, MSU Denver journalism professor, Alfonzo Porter, has released a social media textbook titled, Digital Citizenship: Promoting Wellness for Thriving in a Connected World. The textbook is designed for secondary students in grades 6-12 and is aligned with learning standards of the Society for Health and Physical Education (SHAPE).

It is intended to address the mental, emotional, social and psychological well-being of students as they engage in their everyday cyber realities.
