This study seeks to investigate the relationship between digital citizenship levels of pre-service primary school teachers and their democratic values. The research was designed in descriptive survey model. The research was conducted with the participation of 346 pre-service primary school teachers (juniors and seniors) from Adnan Menderes University and Muğla Sıtkı Koçman University. “Digital Citizenship Scale” developed by İşman and Güngören (2014) and “Democratic Values Scale” developed by Çermik (2013) were used as the data collection tools. The data were analyzed through descriptive statistics and t-test while the unrelated samples were analyzed through one-way analysis of variance. Also, the relationship between the variables was analyzed by using correlation analysis. The results of the analyses reveal that there is a statistically insignificant difference among the pre-service primary school teachers’ digital citizenship scores in terms of the variables of gender and class. As for the democratic values scores, it is observed that there is a statistically significant difference among the pre-service primary school teachers’ scores in terms of gender, having access to the Internet connection, the duration of the Internet use experience, and the duration of daily Internet use. There is also a statistically significant difference among the digital citizenship scores in terms of having the Internet connection, the duration of the Internet use experience, the duration of daily Internet use, and perceived level of the Internet using skills. Democratic values scores differ significantly in terms of class and perceived level of the Internet using skills. When the scores taken from the digital citizenship and democratic values scales are analyzed, it is observed that there is a weak positive correlation between these two variables.

The aim of this study is to analyze the secondary education curricula in terms of the subdimensions of digital citizenship. Curricula used for secondary education (High School 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th Grades) in the 2017-2018 academic year were used as data source. The curricula examined in this scope belong to the following courses: Computer Science, English, Geopgraphy, Democracy and Human Rights, Religion and Ethics, Philosophy, French, Visual Arts, Music, Medical Knowledge and Traffic, Revolution History and Atatürkism, History, Turkish Language and Literature and Contemporary Turkish and World History. The study was carried out with qualitative research methods, and data were collected through document review. In the analysis of the data, induction analysis method was used on the basis of “Digital Citizenship Scale for the Young” developed by Kuş, Güneş, Başarmak and Yakar (2017). The present study reveals that the courses having the highest number of references to digital citizenship in the curricula are “computer science” and “democracy and human rights”. Although computer science curriculum gives wide coverage to digital skills, the coverage of rights and responsibilities in the digital environment and ethical and critical thinking skills is limited. In the curricula of the other courses, contents related digital citizenship are highly limited

Digital Citizenship Approach and Teacher Profile2020 •
The aim of this paper is to analyse ideas about digital citizenship in Mexican teachers of pupils from elementary through to intermediate level, taking the following as independent variables: gender, age, region and the educational level taught. The hypothesis is that such variables affect what the teachers believe digital citizenship to be. This research is carried out on a group of 220 elementary and intermediate education teachers in a state located in northeast Mexico. Findings show that male teachers are more inclined to use indicators related to the improvement of academic performance, and less interested in indicators related to harmony in the group/school environment. In addition, young teachers tend to work with ideas that are more student-focused and less teacher-led, in contrast to their older peers, who favour more teacher-focused ideas over student-centred ones. Finally, elementary education teachers seek to focus their ideas on parents and the community instead of on students, while those teaching at intermediate level target their ideas more on students and less towards their parents and the community. If schools are planning to focus on the development of competences for digital citizenship, it is important to consider as part of the educational strategy how the profile of the teacher in terms of gender, age, and the educational level at which they teach influences their ideas.

Investigation of Pre-Service Teachers' Levels of Digital Citizenship, Digital Wisdom, and Digital FluencyThis research aims to examine the levels of pre-service teachers' digital citizenship, digital wisdom, and digital fluency. Data were collected from 841 pre-service teachers studying at a state university. The obtained data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, MANOVA, and regression tests. As a result of the research, it is obvious that the digital fluency scores of the male teacher candidates were higher than the gender of the teacher candidates. It is evident that the common effect of the prospective teachers' classes and departments differs significantly from the effect on the digital citizenship and digital wisdom levels. A significant difference was found regarding the joint and class effects of pre-service teachers' digital fluency, digital citizenship, and digital wisdom. According to the results of the regression analysis, it was seen that the digital citizenship of the teacher candidates significantly predicted the digital fluency and digital wisdom variables.
