Digital citizenship and Yik Yak

Keeping on with the digital citizenship trend, I came across the article Teaching digital citizenship in a 'yakking' world  which again reinforces the absolute need to teach digital citizenship. It also emphases how the ethics of using social media can be thrown out the window when an app allows anonymous posting. Keys to safer schools has also written a special report about this app and some of the impact it has.
