Digital citizenship education from a parent's perspective
Janice Richardson, Veronica Samara
Council of Europe
Livre numérique
A majority of parents today are grappling with issues such as privacy, digital
footprints and bullying. Where do they turn to find reliable information? When
should they intervene in their children’s online activities? What is their
role in ensuring that their children master the values, attitudes, skills and
knowledge they need to actively, effectively engage with society? In 2020, the
Council of Europe conducted a survey to better understand the views of parents
on digital citizenship education and the concerns they have about their
children’s use of digital technology. More than 21 000 parents in 47 countries
responded to the survey, which was followed up by interviews in 2020 and 2021.
Digital citizenship education from a parent’s perspective maps the needs and
reflections of parents as they strive to ensure the well-being of their
children and help them become competent digital citizens, who are empowered by
digital technology rather than shaped by it. Conducted in the midst of school
closures during the Covid-19 pandemic, the study documents parents’ experience
when they stepped up as primary educators, often with little or no guidance
from schools and inadequate digital equipment to cover their children’s needs.
It aims to foster debate between parents, educators, researchers and policy
makers on the meaning and challenges of digital citizenship education for
children growing up in today’s digital age.
