Article Title: A Book Review; Digital Citizenship: A Community-Based Approach
by Abdullah Saif Alqahtani

Abstract:
This review critiques Susan Bearden's Digital Citizenship: A Community-Based Approach. An author considers that the digital citizenship is a free professional learning community that is initiated to help students to share ideas, stay connected, and be safe. Bearden emphasizes that the digital citizenship should become an essential part of the education culture. An author provides a clear guide for education leaders on how to implement the community-based approach to digital citizenship education in their learning institutions. The book only contains the necessary functional information, which makes it a useful tool for education leaders worldwide who are already familiar with the core concepts and theory behind the approach and want to learn more about its practical implementation. The review will evaluate the core of the connection between the digital citizenship and education by examining the effectiveness based on technology-rich learning and teaching and the appropriate use of the digital technology according to rights and responsibilities of the digital citizenry.
Keywords: digital citizenship, community-based approach, information technology, cyberbullying, learning
