Tech Exploration - Digital Passport

Digital Passport is geared towards 3rd-5th graders. Its purpose is to teach digital safety and respect and foster a strong, responsible digital community through educational videos and games. As students progress through the program, they earn digital badges. Classroom activities are available to back up the independent learning that students have done. Digital Passport is free.

This would be a great thing to use in computer classes in a 3rd-5th grade setting. If there are not computer classes available in a school, then it could be used during enrichment/downtime in a regular classroom setting.


I would recommend it to teachers who have 3rd-5th graders. The only real downfall that I can see is that the age range it reaches is quite limited (although 3rd-5th grade is definitely the ideal time to first be promoting internet safety and responsibility).
