What is Digital Citizenship?
Being a great global digital citizen isn’t just about
using your head—it’s also about using your heart.
Being responsible and ethical is essential to a healthy
and peaceful life in the world we all share. A global
digital citizen enjoys the benefits of being in our
connected world, while practicing some significant
responsibilities at the same time.
