“…Focusing on a module on democracy and education mandatory for all subject student teachers, this paper has highlighted the need for support through TEDs' professional development and national policy. Digital citizenship is a growing research field (Richardson et al 2021) which has become increasingly international, and the European Commission (2021) lists digital citizenship among the 'Digital Decade' targets for 2030. Although the context of this paper is Sweden, the results are likely relevant for consideration in other national contexts, for instance, where there is ambiguity as to central guidelines on digital citizenship in education.…”

“…In the field of digital citizenship, there is no universally adopted definition (Frau-Meigs et al 2017;Richardson et al 2021) and it is interdisciplinary, which is reflected by recent literature reviews of empirical research and theoretical frameworks in social science (e.g., Jaeger 2021; Jørring et al 2019) and education (e.g., Heath 2018;Richardson et al 2021). Broadly, digital citizenship has been referred to as opportunities and abilities to use technology for participation in society (Lindgren 2017;Mossberger et al 2007), and conceptualizations typically include skills, knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors.…”

“…Normative approaches, particularly Ribble's (2015), have been criticized for lack of empirical support, inadequate theorization, and depoliticized citizenship (Heath 2018;Mattson 2016;Noula 2019). While Richardson et al (2021) argue that ethics has received insufficient attention, other studies show that normative approaches are over-represented and call for more critical approaches (Heath 2018;Jørring et al 2019).…”

Digital Citizenship and Professional Digital Competence — Swedish Subject Teacher Education in a Postdigital Era

Teacher education (TE) is not only about skills and knowledge but also about citizenship formation as student teachers are prepared for the democratic assignment of school. In a postdigital era, blurred boundaries between digital technologies and physical reality place new demands on citizenship, teacher education institutions (TEIs), and teacher educators (TEDs). This paper explores Swedish TEDs’ views of digital citizenship and the professional digital competence (PDC) required for teaching subject student teachers to teach for digital citizenship. Seven TEIs participated and 16 semi-structured interviews were conducted with TEDs teaching a Core Education Subjects module on education and democracy mandatory for all student teachers. TEDs generally believe that the digitalization of society impacts the democratic assignment and addressing this requires specific PDC. Conceptualizations of digital citizenship tend to foreground source criticism as well as ethical, safe, and sound use of digital technologies, and to some degree also (im-)material means of democratic participation. While generally believing that TE should address questions relating to digital citizenship and that TEDs have an important role in this regard, digital technologies are discussed in the module coincidentally and TEDs are unsure to what degree student teachers receive such training. Challenges include lack of time and unclear Degree Objectives. To develop TEDs’ PDC to include questions relating to digital citizenship in their teaching, support is needed through policy and continuous professional development for TEDs, including reviews of course content and program structure. Future TE research needs to explore digital citizenship in the school subject social studies.

“…A review of the most relevant keywords revealed that information literacy, ICT, communication, cooperation, and digital content production were the most frequent terms associated with digital skills. However, photographs, objects, audio or audio/visual items, and digital citizenship are the methods used in digital citizenship (Bramwell, 2020;Manzuoli et al, 2019;Richardson et al, 2021;Villalobos et al, 2021;Zhao et al, 2021). Existing research categorizes these methods into five categories, as stated above.…”

Digital citizenship attempts to assist the younger generation in making prudent and acceptable decisions in various digital contexts. Society’s disregard for digital citizenship has negative consequences, including cyberbullying and other crimes. Therefore, this study investigates the approaches and methodologies utilized in digital citizenship by conducting a thorough literature review. The research analyzed three academic databases comprising papers from some of the most esteemed periodicals. Each search engine was provided with the keywords “digital citizenship”, “digital literacy”, “digital native,” and “digital citizenship-related approaches.” The search was limited to articles having “digital citizenship” and “citizenships” in the title, abstract, and body. To ensure that individual results were extracted from each database, duplicate articles were manually removed in a cascade fashion from one database to the next. Digital citizenship encompasses a far more extensive set of skills than computer or media literacy. This is due to citizens’ enthusiasm for digital technologies in industrialized nations such as the United States, the United Kingdom, and China. Problem-solving, security, information processing and innovation, and content communication are related to digital citizenship. Despite its value, this appraisal has a few drawbacks. According to the findings, implementing digital citizenship solutions proved challenging. Future research should employ mixed method approaches to understand better digital citizenship acceptance and uptake based on the findings of this study.

“…There are various studies in the field that examine the research base on digital citizenship (e.g. Sánchez et al, 2019;İmer & Kaya, 2020;Fernández-Prados et al, 2020;Kaur, 2021;Richardson et al, 2021;Taşkıran, 2021;Öztürk, 2021). Sánchez et al (2019), for instance, discussed the studies on digital citizenship (Spanish and English) in various databases (Science Direct, Redalyc, Eric, ISI, Proquest, Scopus, Emerald, Dialnet, and Ebsco) between 2007 and 2017 in terms of the concept of digital citizenship and the trends of studies on the subject.…”

This study aimed to unearth the status of the educational research dimension of the digital citizenship literature through the studies scanned in the education research category in the WoS database and whose author keywords include digital citizenship. For this purpose, 96 studies were examined. The data set was extracted from WoS database. A bibliometric analysis was conducted for a holistic review of the subject area. The data was analyzed using VOSviewer software. First, the distribution of studies on digital citizenship by years and publication types is reported. Within the scope of bibliometric analysis, first, citation analysis was performed. To reveal the most cited articles, authors, journals, institutions, and countries on digital citizenship. Also, by using the citation analysis, the authors, journals, institutions, and countries that have published the most studies on digital citizenship are reported. In the current study, a co-author analysis was also performed and the most collaborating institutions on digital citizenship and the most co-cited authors on digital citizenship were studied. In addition, the most used author keywords in studies on digital citizenship were revealed by using a common word analysis. The results of the current study might constitute a guide for further research on digital citizenship.
