1. What is a digital citizenship toolkit?

  1. A personal collection of plans, habits, cards, scripts, and projects that help you act like a kind, safe, smart digital citizen in real life
  2. A bag of tools you use to fix a broken laptop
  3. A store where you buy new tablets
  4. A single long test you take at the end of the year
Show Answer

The correct answer is A. A digital citizenship toolkit is a personal collection of real pieces — pledges, plans, cards, scripts, posters, and projects — that take the ideas from this year and put them into your daily life. A great toolkit reminds you what to do, helps your family and friends, and grows with you over time.

2. What is a personal pledge?

  1. A bill you pay every month
  2. A short promise you write to yourself about how you will act online
  3. A secret password shared with a classmate
  4. A dance move from a music video
Show Answer

The correct answer is B. A personal pledge is a short promise you write to yourself. It might say "I promise to pause before I click. I promise to be kind in chats. I promise to tell a trusted adult when something feels wrong." Sign it and put it somewhere you will see it every day.

3. What is peer teaching?

  1. A game where students race each other
  2. When a grown-up teaches only grown-ups
  3. When a kid explains an idea to other kids the same age
  4. A test given by a school principal
Show Answer

The correct answer is C. Peer teaching is when a kid explains an idea to other kids the same age. It is powerful because kids often understand each other in ways grown-ups cannot. When you peer-teach a friend the four critical questions, you both walk away smarter.

4. Why does the chapter say the best way to lock a habit into your brain is to teach it to someone else?

  1. Because when you teach, your own brain practices the habit twice
  2. Because teachers get paid extra
  3. Because it is easy to forget things you keep to yourself
  4. Because teaching makes the wifi faster
Show Answer

The correct answer is A. Teaching is one of the strongest ways to learn. When you explain the Safe Talk Rule to your little cousin, your own brain practices it twice — once while you think about how to say it clearly, and once while you say it. Knowledge sharing is a gift that gives back to the giver.

5. What is a lifelong learner?

  1. Someone who finishes school and stops asking questions
  2. A person who keeps learning, asking questions, and changing their mind across their whole life
  3. A kind of library book
  4. A very old student still in fifth grade
Show Answer

The correct answer is B. A lifelong learner is someone who keeps learning across their whole life — not just in school. The digital world will change a lot between now and when you are a grown-up. The habits in this book work because they are about people, not about specific apps, and a lifelong learner keeps using and improving them.

6. What is continuous improvement?

  1. Trying to be perfect on day one
  2. Quitting if you make a mistake
  3. The idea that you don't have to be perfect — you just have to be a tiny bit better than you were yesterday
  4. Starting a new account every week
Show Answer

The correct answer is C. Continuous improvement means stacking tiny, 1% gains across many days. A digital citizen who improves just a little each week becomes a very different digital citizen by the end of the year. You do not need to be perfect — you just need to keep trying.

7. Marcus wants to make sure his whole family is on the same page about screens at home. Which piece of the toolkit should he build?

  1. A fact check card
  2. A family tech plan he makes and signs with the grown-ups at home
  3. An antibullying poster
  4. An upstander script
Show Answer

The correct answer is B. A family tech plan is a written agreement that the whole family — kids and grown-ups — helps make. It covers bedtimes, tech-free zones, daily limits, and wellbeing checks. Signing it together and putting it on the fridge turns it from a rule into a shared promise.

8. Aisha keeps forgetting to take breaks from her screen. How can she use goal setting to help?

  1. Pick one small, clear goal like "take a screen break every 30 minutes for one week" and check in on Sunday
  2. Promise to "just be better" with no plan
  3. Give up on breaks completely
  4. Set a goal so big she can never reach it
Show Answer

The correct answer is A. Good goals are small enough to actually do and clear enough to actually measure. "Be a better digital citizen" is too big. "Take a screen break every 30 minutes for one week" is the right size. Picking a check-in date helps Aisha notice how she is doing.

9. Priya wants to keep a small notebook where she writes a few sentences each day about her screens, friends, feelings, and habits. Which toolkit piece is she building?

  1. A reflection journal
  2. A password plan
  3. An antibullying poster
  4. A classroom pledge
Show Answer

The correct answer is A. A reflection journal is a small notebook (or a slide deck, or a notes file) where you practice the reflective thinking habit from Chapter 16. Even three sentences a day is enough. Over time, the journal becomes a record of how your thinking has grown.

10. Jordan stops and asks himself, "What am I doing well? What am I struggling with? What is one thing I want to try this week?" What habit is he using?

  1. A password plan
  2. Buddy class sharing
  3. A classroom pledge
  4. Self assessment
Show Answer

The correct answer is D. Self assessment is the habit of giving yourself an honest, fair report card — not a guilt trip. A good self assessment asks what you are doing well, what you are struggling with, and what one small thing you want to try next. It pairs well with goal setting and reflection journaling.
