 5 TENETS OF GLOBAL DIGITAL
CITIZENSHIP

PERSONAL GLOBAL
RESPONSIBILITY CITIZENSHIP

DIGITAL
ALTRUISTIC SERVICE
 PERSONAL
RESPONSIBILITY

●
It is demonstrating how we manage ourselves in matters such as personal finance, ethical and
moral boundaries, personal health and wellness, and relationships of every kind, both online or
offline. 
●
For the student, this kind of responsibility means taking ownership of his/her learning.
Developing a sense of accountability for lifelong learning prepares them for the workplace.
They must often think and act independently and take initiatives on their own in order to help
them develop high - level critical thinking and problem solving abilities that will assist them in
every aspect of their lives.
 GLOBAL
CITIZENSHIP

●
The Global Digital Citizen understands that technology has dissolved boundaries
between all the world's people. We now communicate, collaborate, and celebrate
across all levels of society. We are now all global citizens. Our students must realize,
among other things, that we aren't isolated from each other anymore.
●
A deep understanding of this new global disconnectedness can encourage them to be
aware of the issues, traditions, values and cultures of other citizens. This leads to
cultivating understanding, acceptance, compassion, and humility. 
 DIGITAL
CITIZENSHIP

●
It covers appropriate and exemplary behavior in our online environments. It's about
working towards making our transparent digital world safe for ourselves and others.
Just like personal responsibility, this involves moving accountability for appropriate
behavior to our students.
●
We teach them how to govern this behavior, act in just and moral ways, and lead by
good example in all online associations. In doing so, they foster independence within
themselves and hopefully light the way for others to do the same.
 ALTRUISTIC
SERVICE

●
Altruism is defined as "having a selfless concern for the well - being of others." The Global
Digital Citizens acknowledge that they share this world with many different people. These ideals
apply to the people we know, but also to those we don't know. These include embracing the
opportunity to exercise charity and goodwill for the benefit of others.
●
The practice of altruistic service provides opportunities for our students to create meaningful
connections to the real world. It gives them the chance to reach out to others and do things that
can make a person's experiences better or easier in everyday life. This produces a sense of
community and well - being for all. 
 ENVIRONMENTAL
STEWARDSHIP

●
This practice is all about common - sense values and an appreciation for the
beauty and majesty that surround us every day. This facet of Global Digital
Citizenship encourages exploring how we can practice the conscientious use of
Earth's resources. Environmental stewardship encourages every student to take a
positive stand on personal, local, regional, national, and international actions
regarding the preservation of what is essentially our "environmental community".

DIGITAL ETIQUETTE
DIGITAL LAW
DIGITAL RIGHTS & RESPONSIBILITIES
DIGITAL HEALTH & WELLNESS
DIGITAL SECURITY
 DIGITAL ACCESS

●
Teachers should be aware of the needs students have and try to ensure they can equally make use of online resources.
●
Due to improvements in schools worldwide, teachers can provide engaging lessons and motivate their students by
including technology in class. Educators need to provide alternatives suitable for every student’s needs.

DIGITAL COMMERCE
●
It refers to selling and buying things online and the necessity to tackle safety issues while using money in the
digital world. Technology is also used in class to showcase students the possible paths to take in their prospect
careers opening their way to a future job.
●
Understanding how e-commerce works is a must, both as possible customers and as potential entrepreneurs.
 DIGITAL COMMUNICATION

●
Communicating online has become so common and so frequent that students forget they are doing so in a
virtual space. Nowadays though, the online has given a voice to anyone who needed it. They can express
themselves freely and be themselves. This in turn requires a person to be empathetic and react
appropriately online and offline.

DIGITAL LITERACY

●
Education is the key to everything. Being aware of others while online or offline is important for our personal growth contributing also to spreading
awareness of the way we treat each other in either space.
●
Digital literacy also includes reaching the ability to differentiate between real and fake content which otherwise can have great negative impact over the
lives of students and adults altogether.
●
Students need to learn how to use their free will and decide what content is good for them and what they should avoid in order to lead a balanced life.
 DIGITAL ETIQUETTE

●
Technology comes with basic instructions of usage, but in the long run we should educate students to
understand it better and become “digitally fluent”. This will shape their online behavior and they will respond
positively rather than negatively to any content or comment. In this way, the online attitude is transposed into
the real world and vice versa that avoids conflict.

DIGITAL LAW

●
Deals with the legal rights and restrictions governing technology use. Many online users are actually breaking
the law, either knowing or not knowing, from identity theft to hacking into someone else’s email to
cyberbullying to downloading copyrighted music to using. To prevent any kind of online crime, no matter how
serious, students as digital citizens need to know the law.
 DIGITAL RIGHTS &
RESPONSIBILITIES
●
There are rules and policies to follow that imply the possibility of being held accountable for your actions and
deeds in the online world.
●
Schools should approach this subject in class making the students take responsibility for their actions and
also recognize and report any misconduct in the virtual environment.

DIGITAL HEALTH &

WELLNESS
●
Everyone present in the online world has to contribute to the well-being of a person online helping others in
need. Students should be taught to protect themselves and others from possible harm and alert an adult if it’s
the case. Making use of online resources is a plus, but one should be aware of the dangers that reside with this
benefit.
 DIGITAL SECURITY

●
Security in the online world is important since viruses and worms can go from system to
system and affect the electronic devices we use. Precautions need to be taken to guarantee
their safety.
●
Moreover, when using devices in school or at home, students have to understand the
implications of it and be aware of possible attacks.
●
Teachers should also explain how to prevent them from happening and how to protect their
devices. This is a necessary skill in today’s digital world.
