Safer Internet Day 2020 – Save the date!.
Safer Internet Day (SID) is organised by Insafe in February of each year to promote safer and more responsible use of online technology and mobile phones, especially among children and young people across the world.
Safer Internet Day 2020 will be celebrated on Tuesday 11 February 2020, with the strapline of ===> “Together for a better internet” <=== following the success of last year’s campaign.
My participation for the SID2020
WHAT is special this year with my participation on SID2020?
I created a ===> #GlobalCollaboration blog in 2017 <=== from @knolinfos (my pseudo on twitter) & @ICTPHMS & @kimmindy7 for #LEARNing about #DigitalCitizenShip. The authors are from Luxembourg/Europe (me), one female teacher from the USA and a male teacher from the USA WHO are using my blog post to learn together and sharing THEIR practice with YOU dear readers.
Well, there is a lot of different views about ===> Digital CitiZENship <=== WE will explore WHAT could be THE BEST way to teach and to learn about Digital CitiZENship (hashtag on Twitter is #digcit).
Here below the links of OUR blog post:
- Learning To Become a GOOD Digital Citizen | Digital CitizenShip (A Global-Collaboration Blog)
- PracTICE: Learning To Learn-Digital CitizenShip (A Global-Collaboration Blog)
How does it come that I post Global-Collaboration blog posts? Well, once the #ProfessionalDevelopment is Upto-Date, one does understand THAT learning in a team brings out a win-win situation and that a generation exchange is benefit for all of the participants as anyone learns from each other. BTW: here below other Global-Collaboration blogs with teaching persons from Australia, USA, France, Luxembourg (me):

Why should ===> anyone <=== participate?
.
========> Cyber-security – a shared responsibility <=======
.
Cyber-Security is a shared responsibility, WE are ALL responsible for a more secure Internet and it is ===> OUR responsibility to build up the future for OUR kids, learners and students! <===
WE can do it by learning and teaching the basics of Cyber-Security and ALSO by helping international organizations such as “Safer Internet Day” to become a catalyst for such a difficult task!!!
.
======> WE are living in a world of connected technology, Cyber-Security is a MUST!!! <======

WE are really lucky today because of ICT and the internet to learn about electronics; it was NEVER THAT easy as today!! WE can find simulation software as well as schematics drawing software online and/or for download as for FREE (Open Source and FREEWARE). I remember 49 years ago when I was 12 years old and tinkering around, using curiosity to find out on the How-To things were working by disassembling them, whatever it was… Later, I was working after school (12 1/2 years old starting till 20 years…) around on any place in the village (farmer, café, gardening for private persons, etc.) to earn some money to be able to buy me necessary stuff for my electronics lab…
And those who give them feedback in the chats GET blocked, as it doesn’t fit to their “
A quote to remember <===> I much prefer the sharpest criticism of a single intelligent man to the thoughtless approval of the masses. [Johannes KEPLER].
OK, giving anybody a chance in case if THEY missed it… 
Well, there are some really good books which will help EDUcators TEACHers 
The same as WE used OUR blogs to communicate and to show OUR LEARNing to others, so that THEY could learn also from us.
