Defining Digital Citizenship
If the key concepts are what students must understand, the core competencies are what they have to be able to do, and the framework topics are what they need to know, then digital citizenship may be imagined as the ideal outcome of media education. Digital citizenship is, therefore, realized when people have developed the ability to access, use, understand and engage with media, including online communities; apply critical thinking to media and networked tools; and possess the content knowledge needed to do all these things ethically and effectively.
