\"Old<\/a><\/div>\n

Defining digital citizenship is not easy because it means different things to different people. It is also a concept which is debated among scholars researching the field.<\/p>\n

If you conduct a general search for “digital citizenship” you will find many links referencing resources targeting the school-level, with a focus on safe, skilled and ethical use of online technology. While these aspects are important, for the purposes of this tertiary-level course, we need to explore the concept of “digital citizenship” in more detail.
