[PODCAST] Digital Citizenship in the Classroom and the Boardroom
JSB takes to the stage (virtually) to discuss digital citizenship in the boardroom.

Digital Citizenship Summit
The 4th annual Digital Citizenship Summit (DigCitSummit) took place at Webster University in St. Louis on September 22, 2018, organised by the Digital Citizenship Institute.
Hundreds of influencers from a range of specialist areas, varying locations and across a wide age group attended the 4th Annual Digital Citizenship Summit.
The Digital Citizenship Summit is a gathering of digital citizenship enthusiasts and influencers from around the world.

The event shared knowledge through panel discussions, breakout sessions and student showcases. Both online and offline issues were discussed, and solutions and practical tips shared.
