Digital Citizens Of The Future

Berra Nur ÇARK

Digital world means being connected with the help of digital devices as well as the digital marketing services that are available to everyone at any time . In today ’ s world , everything is based on technology and technology is getting more and more advanced each day . Therefore , in order for us to be able to keep up with today ’ s world , we must attach importance to digital developments . With regard to this , we need to improve ourselves and build our future plans on it .
First of all , we should direct young people to occupations that require digital skills in the future . With this aim , we should introduce our children to the digital world from a young age . We should increase technological facilities in schools and give more support to children in informatics . We can , for example , organise competitions and set up rewards
to this end . Also , we must accelerate the digitalization in our lives so that we will be able to do most of our work with the help of technological devices . We can only be able to do this if we raise digital citizens from today .
Secondly , we must start digitalization of current occupations such as engineering and medicine . Current technologies continue to evolve , so we should train people working in these jobs in order for them to get adapted to the changing world .
In conclusion , if we want to have a place in today ’ s digital era , we have to start educating young minds about the importance of being a digital citizen . In this way , we will be able to utilize technology in a more effective way .
