Nine Elements of Digital Citizenship
Digital Citizenship in Education
Digital citizenship is a set of rules, controls, standards, norms,
ideas and principles used in the optimal and correct use of technology that
children and young citizens need to learn in order to contribute to the
advancement of the country.
Digital citizenship, in short, is the smart deal with technology that
directs the benefits of modern technologies and protects against their
threats and dangers.
Digital citizenship aims to find the right way to guide and protect
all users, especially children and adolescents, by encouraging desirable
behaviors and fighting repulsive behaviors in digital transactions, for a
digital citizen who loves his country and strives for its progress.
The concept of digital citizenship, then, has a
strong relationship with the education system, because
it is able to help teachers, educators in general, and
parents to understand what students must know in
order to use technology appropriately.
Digital citizenship is more than just an

educational tool. Rather, it is a way to prepare students
for full participation in society and active participation
in serving the national interest in general and in the
digital field in particular.
Elements of Digital Citizenship
1. Digital Access:
Digital Access means equal opportunity for all students in terms
of technological access, so that technology is accessible to all
and has the opportunity to engage in a digital society.
As we prepare students for a technological future, access to
technology in schools must be available and accessible.
2. Digital Commerce:
Educate students about digital commerce and smart
consumption, and tell them about issues they may face while
shopping online such as fraud, identity theft, personal
information, etc. so that students become more aware when
buying or selling goods electronically, which in turn prepares
them to interact in the digital economy.
3. Digital Communication:
Digital communication is the new way people interact with each
other, whether through e-mail, video calling, instant messaging,
social networking sites, or other digital media.
It is, therefore, necessary to achieve appropriate social and
digital communication when communicating with others and to
educate students about the etiquette and rules to be followed.
4. Digital Literacy:
Despite efforts to spread technology in general, it is often the
focus of teaching on technology education itself, not how to use
it properly.
One of the most important issues of digital culture is learning
the basics of digital, assessing the electronic resources and the
accuracy and authenticity of their content, as well as detecting
and developing patterns of learning on the Internet and distance
learning.
5. Digital Etiquette:
In the past, the responsibility of establishing the rules of behavior was
usually the sole responsibility of parents.
Now, as technology develops, parents can no longer keep pace with what
is new and what is appropriate and inappropriate digital content.
And teachers demonstrate our role in addressing issues of digital
behavior in the curriculum and emphasize the principle of respect and
introduce students to the basics of digital rules of conduct.
6. Digital Laws:
A digital law protecting digital users and any violation of the laws of this
system applies to actual penalties.
This should be addressed through the school and it should be
considered as a penalty for some irresponsible behavior of students
such as the use of piracy programs, hacking of programs and systems,
sexual harassment, identity theft, etc.
7. Digital Rights and Responsibilities:
As a digital law that protects digital citizens, the rights of these citizens,
such as privacy, protection of intellectual property and other rights
must be cautious.
There are responsibilities in return for these rights. In order to achieve
its rights, this digital society will have to fulfill its responsibilities, which
is the optimal and responsible use of technology.
8. Digital Health and Wellness:

Educate students about physical risks that can withstand the use of
technology such as problems with the eyes, shoulders or back and other
symptoms and can develop an actual addiction and there may be some
mental and psychological problems.
Students need to combine the use of technology while maintaining good
health.
9. Digital Security:
Digital Security includes teaching students how
to protect their electronic data by using
antivirus programs, digital security systems,
and not providing personal data to anyone on
the Internet, which in turn protects them from
identity theft, fraud, and harassment.
