Digital Citizenship in the Real World. The Digital Driver’s License is helping students navigate the hazards of the Internet. Every new driver takes a test before ever taking the wheel. With so much at stake, it would be reckless not to. So it’s something of a mystery why, in the age of increased attention on cyberbullying and online predators, schools aren’t doing more to prep students for the inevitable realities of the Internet.

Photo by Michelle Phan Rather, they are a clear reflection of exactly what girls and women have been taught to be their entire lives: images to be looked at. Carefully posed, styled, and edited images of otherwise dynamic human beings for others to gaze upon and comment on. Selfies are not just images you take of yourself for yourself; they are images you take of yourself for others to see.
Selfies weren’t a thing until social media made it possible to receive validation in an easy, public way online. And what have girls and women been taught from Day 1 brings them the most value? Looking good. Today, we’re coining a new term: Selfie-objectification. Snapping photos of ourselves to document what we look like in certain moments, looks, or angles is a new form of self-objectification that we call “selfie-objectification.” Image from Fashion Stylist Institute Selfies are a unique phenomenon because they work as a more permanent form of a mirror.

Some call today’s students “digital natives.” Others call them the “distracted generation.” Whichever term you prefer, it’s clear they’re both far more than labels: they capture the core conflict many of us involved in education — educators, parents, and even students — feel about the use of technology in the classroom.
To educators who embrace new technologies wholeheartedly, digital devices are a powerful tool for creating an engaged and individualized educational experience. To those that are a little more hesitant, digital devices seem more like a quick route to Instagram and Facebook — that is, to distractions that interfere with the educational experience, rather than boosting it. Within this debate, there’s only one thing that’s crystal clear: digital technology in the classroom is here to stay, whether it’s provided directly by the school or used surreptitiously by students on the sly.
