Knowledge, experience, and values of digital citizenship in three apple distinguished schools in Malaysia

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This study examines the extent of knowledge, experience, and values of digital citizenship among teachers and students at an Apple Distinguished School in Malaysia. A qualitative approach was used to complete this study, where two teachers and five students were selected for the interview process. Digital communication, digital ethics, and digital safety were the elements focused on in the study because all three are closely related to teachers and students in the school. The findings show that the respondents did not have a precise understanding of digital citizenship. However, the respondents demonstrated experience and values related to digital citizenship when using technology. The implications of this study provide information to schools and the Ministry of Education that digital citizenship is an important matter that should be incorporated into the school curriculum in line with the ongoing digitalization of education to produce responsible teachers, students, and communities in using technology.
