Assignment: Digital Development
Digital Development Assignment: Have you ever taken five minutes to check email and realize two hours later that you have been sitting on the computer reading websites or social media? This is not unusual these days for just about anyone. In getting ready for this Discussion, you kept a record of your interactions with digital technology and communications in order to measure the amount of time you spend in “cyberspace.” It is likely that the more time you have spent using digital technology, you have seen increased incidents of violations of cyber civility.
according to Assignment: Digital Development, For this Digital Development Discussion, you use the Tracking Template from this week’s Learning Resources where you collected your interactions with digital technology. Based on the interactions you collected, in this Discussion you consider the digital technologies in which you have interacted, along with how much interaction you have had. You also reflect on incidents of cyber civility.
To Prepare for this Digital Development Discussion:
Consider the different types of digital technologies as well as communication technologies and the amount of interaction you have with these technologies
Review this week’s Learning Resources related to Cyber Civility and behaviors
Reflect on incidents of cyber civility you have witnessed during your interactions while using digital technology
Review the Tracking Template from this week’s Learning Resources and use it for this Discussion
Over a 24-hour period, use the Tracking Template to keep track of the digital technology and communication technologies you used and the amount of time you spent using them. Note: You will not be submitting your completed template.

ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CLASS
Discussion Questions (DQ)
Assignment: Digital Development states that Initial responses to the DQ should address all components of the questions asked, including a minimum of one scholarly source, and be at least 250 words.
Successful responses are substantive (i.e., add something new to the discussion, engage others in the discussion, well-developed idea) and include at least one scholarly source.
One or two-sentence responses, simple statements of agreement, or “good post,” and responses that are off-topic will not count as substantive. Substantive responses should be at least 150 words.
I encourage you to incorporate the readings from the week (as applicable) into your responses.
Weekly Participation
Your initial responses to the mandatory DQ do not count toward participation and are graded separately.
In addition to the DQ responses, you must post at least one reply to peers (or me) on three separate days, for a total of three replies.
Participation posts do not require a scholarly source/citation (unless you cite someone else’s work).
Part of your weekly participation includes viewing the weekly announcement and attesting to watching it in the comments. These announcements are made to ensure you understand everything that is due during the week.
APA Format and Writing Quality
Familiarize yourself with APA format and practice using it correctly. It is used for most writing assignments for your degree. Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for APA paper templates, citation examples, tips, etc. Points will be deducted for poor use of APA format or absence of APA format (if required).
Cite all sources of information! When in doubt, cite the source. Paraphrasing also requires a citation.
I highly recommend using the APA Publication Manual, 6th edition.
Use of Direct Quotes
I discourage overutilization of direct quotes in DQs and assignments at the Masters’s level and deduct points accordingly.
As Masters’s level students, it is important that you be able to critically analyze and interpret information from journal articles and other resources. Simply restating someone else’s words does not demonstrate an understanding of the content or critical analysis of the content.
It is best to paraphrase content and cite your source.
LopesWrite Policy
For assignments that need to be submitted to LopesWrite, please be sure you have received your report and Similarity Index (SI) percentage BEFORE you do a “final submit” to me.
according to Assignment: Digital Development, Once you have received your report, please review it. This report will show you grammatical, punctuation, and spelling errors that can easily be fixed. Take the extra few minutes to review instead of getting counted off for these mistakes.
Review your similarities. Did you forget to cite something? Did you not paraphrase well enough? Is your paper made up of someone else’s thoughts more than your own?
Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for tips on improving your paper and SI score.
Late Policy
The university’s policy on late assignments is 10% penalty PER DAY LATE. This also applies to late DQ replies.
Please communicate with me if you anticipate having to submit an assignment late. I am happy to be flexible, with advance notice. We may be able to work out an extension based on extenuating circumstances.
If you do not communicate with me before submitting an assignment late, the GCU late policy will be in effect.
I do not accept assignments that are two or more weeks late unless we have worked out an extension.
As per policy, no assignments are accepted after the last day of class. Any assignment submitted after midnight on the last day of class will not be accepted for grading.
Communication
Communication is so very important. There are multiple ways to communicate with me:
Questions to Instructor Forum: This is a great place to ask course content or assignment questions. If you have a question, there is a good chance one of your peers does as well. This is a public forum for the class.
Individual Forum: This is a private forum to ask me questions or send me messages. This will be checked at least once every 24 hours.
WHAT IS DIGITAL DEVELOPMENT AND HOW DOES IT WORK?
The use and application of technology and digital tools in international development is referred to as digital development or ICT4D (information and communication technology for development).
This includes using technology for social, economic, and political development, with a focus on assisting the most vulnerable children, particularly girls, according to Plan International.
CITY SAFETY IS DIGITALLY MAPED BY GIRLS.
We developed the Free to Be app with Monash University in Australia and CrowdSpot, an internet mapping company, to allow females to identify where they feel secure and unsafe in five major cities across the world.
Plan International and young people will be able to use the findings to advocate for the inclusion of girls’ voices in city planning processes.

WHY IS INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY FOR DEVELOPMENT IMPORTANT?
Technology is an integral component of many of our daily lives. We use our phones, tablets, and laptops to find information, navigate to new locations, pay bills, and stay in touch with family and friends.
Technology plays an important part in international growth as well. While the digital revolution has not progressed at the same rate over the world, and marginalized populations continue to be excluded, new tools have brought about advances.
SMS messages have been used to disseminate vital health information, radio has been used to educate people about issues such as child marriage, and television has proven to be an excellent medium for disseminating information regarding social change.
The amount of digital tools available to us today is limitless. Smartphones open up a world of new possibilities for communication, learning, and collaboration. Medical supplies can be delivered to far-flung regions using drones. Solar-powered gadgets are used in the most distant regions to provide power to those who do not have access to a power grid.
Technology, when utilized wisely, can provide us with new solutions to solve the issues that children confront. With digital data collecting and analytics, we can make our work more efficient and transparent, and we can ensure that the voices of marginalized people reach decision makers and leaders everywhere.
YOUNG PEOPLE’S SKILLS AND OPPORTUNITIES
We help young people obtain the digital skills and confidence they need to get successful employment through our Yes! Digital Ecosystem initiative.
