NetSupport joins The Digital Citizenship Institute
Today, NetSupport and The Digital Citizenship Institute announced a strategic partnership aimed to help schools and their stakeholders reignite the digital citizenship discussion.
NetSupport’s latest software solution, NetSupport DNA, helps schools and districts to promote a culture of good digital citizenship. NetSupport DNA offers keyword and phrase monitoring tools, age-appropriate internet controls, concern reporting to trusted staff, and access to self-help resources. It allows teachers to demonstrate appropriate behavior while ensuring schools can stem the increasing instances of cyber-bullying, radicalization, sexual predation, racism and more – while complying with CIPA requirements.

“Often, discussions around kids and technology begin and end with all the don’ts. We are committed to changing this narrative from the reactive to the proactive where the don’ts become I will statements and the positives outweigh the negatives,” states Dr. Marialice B.F.X. Curran, Founder and Executive Director of the Digital Citizenship Institute. The Institute expands the digital safety discussion to explore how adults and children can also work side-by-side to learn about and experience deliberate, positive uses of technology together.
