Abstract:

The Digital Citizenship Education Planner (DCE Planner) is an essential tool for empowering young citizens in the digital era. It aims at creating an agreed vision of competences citizens need for constructive, responsible and meaningful engagement with digital technologies.
The DCE Planner is a dynamic tool with the flexibility to meet the needs of a variety of educational professionals – teachers, school leaders, teacher educators, administrators, non-formal education actors and policy makers. Its accessible language and simple structure enable teachers to create meaningful learning experiences for students. School leaders can draw on it to decide school priorities. Teacher educators can use it to plan professional development, and administrators to monitor educational outcomes. Civil society actors can refer to the DCE Planner when designing training of trainers or other capacity development activities. Policy makers can look to it for direction on addressing current educational challenges arising from the way digitalisation is affecting society, human rights and democracy.
The DCE Planner is a multipurpose tool serving as a companion to explain digital citizenship and to map a variety of aspects of digital competences.
