DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP
At ULink College, we encourage engagement with digital citizenship through:
We promote digital ethics by encouraging students to respect intellectual property and to behave with awareness and responsibility, when expressing themselves, engaging in interpersonal communications and retrieving information online.
We empower students with the skills, knowledge, and competencies needed to navigate online resources, communicate effectively in a variety of online contexts, and engage with the digital world meaningfully, in order to prepare for university life and beyond.
We enable students to protect themselves online, through an awareness of digital safety and security, and provide them with the opportunity to take responsibility for their wellbeing in an online setting.
