Good cybercitizens know both their rights and responsibilities when interacting online, and they stick to a code of conduct that makes a clear distinction between proper and improper behavior. In this narrative, aligned to reading standards for literacy in technical subjects, readers learn that this code of conduct is known as ethics and that it will help them make smart and safe decisions while online.
