Abstract

This paper explores the conceptual clarity of critical digital citizenship (CDC) and its significance in educating students for a post-digital, inclusive, and egalitarian society. The discussion highlights the urgency of critical digital citizenship in school and university education, particularly for the younger generation, who are digital natives. Through a systematic review, the researchers affirm the importance of incorporating CDC into school and university curricula. The study results provide CDC with a theoretical and practical framework that facilitates its integration into classroom teaching.
