ISTE Student Standard  
Digital Citizen
The Digital Citizen standard takes a new approach to thinking about digital citizenship through the lens of the ISTE Standards for Students. 
The Digital Citizen standard highlights the readiness of students to fully participate in a global, connected, and digital world. ISTE has purposefully developed a fresh perspective on the concept of “digital citizenship,” shifting from a narrative of risk to one of opportunity. 
Rather than focusing only on the litany of digital citizens’ responsibilities and challenges, ISTE’s Digital Citizen standard emphasizes the incredible breadth of opportunities that the digital world presents to today’s student.
