2. Cyber Citizen also known as Digital Citizen
• When they’re online, children and teenagers
are mostly social and collaborative.
• Digital citizenship also lets teenagers express
themselves by sharing and posting comments,
photos and videos. They can explore who they
are and take action on issues they care about by
starting or signing online petitions, joining or
creating online communities and interest
groups, or just by creating content like
animations or blogs.
• the Internet gives teenagers good access to
news and health information, and many turn to
the internet first to find out about themselves
and the world.

4. the World Wide Web has its own etiquette or “netiquette”,
and "netiquette", refers to responsible cyber social behavior -
Cyber citizenship is a term that refers to being responsible when using the Internet.
What you do on-line when no one is looking tells a lot about your character and morals.
You are the first generation to be born into a world that already had computers. This means that
you need to learn the rights and consequences of living in a digital world.
You need to learn how to navigate through all the information that is available on-line.
Cyber Citizenship is kind of like the manners and etiquette of the Web.
Using Internet anonymously could be liberating for you, it allows you to feel more comfortable to
share your thoughts and ideas and opinions online through social media which is great to be a part
of the digital world and to participate in this sharing of information, but certain responsibilities
are required. Mrs. Imen Tekaya Bouaziz
