Back in 2013 I designed a semester long Digital Leadership course for grades 9-12.  It has evolved over time and now that Digital Citizenship is part of our K-12 curriculum, it has morphed into a Digital Leadership course.  Linked below are past blog posts describing activities as well as my Google Drive folder of activities. 


I added in gold boxes as a cue to the students that they needed to type something on the slides.  I also included tutorials to help students review what their tasks are.  

If you encounter a slide that the students can't type on, simply have them insert a text box. 

Before you use them, you will want to

1. Go to File and Make a Copy of each file you are going to use.  This will enable you to edit them.
2. Check any links to make sure they are still active and are accessible in your domain.
3. Decide how you want to push these out to your kids.
4. Edit what you need.  There are some slide decks that have been compressed so they are more accessible to students at home.  This means you can't edit the slides, but you can always insert one of your own slides and delete the one of mine you don't want. 

I cannot emphasize how important it is that you check every single link INSIDE your domain to make sure that your students will be able to access the resources. 


All of the files are public on the web, if you click on a file and it asks to request permission, it is because your school domain does not allow you to access files created outside your domain.  If that is the case, you will need to open it with your personal Gmail account and then share it with your school account, and then open your school Drive and go to Shared With Me.

You have my permission to share these with your students and colleagues as long as you give me credit on them.  You do NOT have permission to sell these on any site.
