DIGITAL LITERACY
To me, digital literacy mean being skilled in using technology, no matter what it is. A person who is digital literate will be able to use any device or software and will naturally learn it by using it. This trait if very helpful in the new age we live in today.
DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP
I believe digital citizenship is an unwritten ethical code that advocates proper use of technology. Every user needs to know their digital morals in order to be granted digital citizenship. This is very important when using digital devices for business and for pleasure.
"Digital citizenship can be defined as the norms of appropriate, responsible behavior with regard to technology use." --Mike Ribble

Digital citizenship can be defined as the norms of appropriate, responsible behavior with regard to technology use.
DIGITAL IDENTITY
I see digital identity as a way to show someone what technology means to you with one click of a button. For example, a music video, or even a picture of digital-world words made into a collage. This identity should represent you as a citizen.
DIGITAL SECURITY
Passwords on your devices, antivirus software, and network restrictions are examples of digital security. It is important to be aware of all your information you put out for the public, fore it could result in harm if you share too much.
PLAGIARISM
To me, plagiarism is taking someone else's work and using it as your own. I believe this to be the worst thing you can do in school. Referencing work is one thing, but stealing someone else's work is unforgivable.
CRITICAL THINKING
I think of critical thinking as the ability to choose between options, being completely non-bias. To think critically, you need to be able to weigh out the positives and negatives of a choice, and go with the one that feels logically smart.
DIGITAL RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
I see digital rights and responsibilities the same way the U.S. Constitution states the rights of an American. Everyone has the right to do what they want with technology as long as it doesn't interfere, or violate another digital citizens privacy.
