Digital Civics and Citizenship: An Applied Approach is a must read for every educator striving to help their students navigate the ever changing landscape of our digital world. With themes of respect, empathy, and advocacy, to name a few, Davis has put together an honest and much needed manual in how to promote civics and citizenship, critical thinking, and character building in an increasingly divisive and ironically disconnected society…. By including activities, lesson plans, and rubrics that can be adapted to students of any age, along with suggestions on how to implement these ideas, this book will be invaluable to all levels of educators. I for one am excited to use it with my faculty to of our students and the positive impact they will have on the world.
