N2  - Netsafe asserts that it is time to seek a definitive statement for digital citizenship and its relationship to ‘digital literacy’ and ‘digital fluency’. Netsafe’s view is that the proliferation of terms and abstract concepts does not help schools. A consensus view of the values, aims and knowledge underpinning
these terms is required. This paper is Netsafe’s initial contribution to achieving this aim. In this paper, Netsafe presents a revised model of digital citizenship which asserts that digital citizenship combines the confident, fluent use and
combination of three key elements:
● Skills and strategies to access technology to communicate, connect, collaborate and create;
● Attitudes, underpinned by values that support personal integrity and positive connection with
others;
● Understanding and knowledge of the digital environments and contexts in which they are working, and how they integrate on/offline spaces; and then critically:
 The ability to draw on this competency of ‘digital fluency’ to participate in life-enhancing opportunities (social, economic, cultural, civil) and achieve their goals in ways that make an
important difference.
In this paper, Netsafe also outlines:
● Principles and a framework to underpin and support the development of digital citizenship within and across the schooling sector; and
● The need and imminent development of process indicators to guide schools’ practice. (From the paper). Record #5235
