, digital identity has a complex relationship with flesh-and-blood identity, which I'll call natural identity

Sometimes we want digital identity to correspond to natural identity

sometimes we want the two to be isolated, or the knowledge of the connection to be highly controlled.

Digital identity refers to the aspect of digital technology that is concerned with the mediation of people's experience of their own identity and the identity of other people and things

One of the duties of educators is to teach the learning community about digital citizenship so everyone can understand, address, and prevent technology abuse.

A personally responsible digital citizen may opt out of paper mail for electronic mailings, communicate respectfully on public discussion forums, and subscribe to information feeds about local volunteering events from Web 2.0 resources such as blogs or social networks. A participatory digital citizen might use a discussion forum to organize a local clothing drive or use an online social network to raise money for a local charity (Center for Social Media, 2004). A justice oriented digital citizen might start to a Web 2.0 resource such as a wiki or a public discussion forum that directly deals with social issues (Westheimer & Kahne, 2004). He or she might support a movement towards social justice by joining an appropriate online social network.

"Digital Citizenship" prepares young people and adults alike to use digital media safely, confidently, and wisely

wiki means a collaborative website that can be directly edited using only a web browser.

A database can generally be looked at as being a collection of records, each of which contains one or more fields (i.e., pieces of data) about some entity (i.e., object), such as a person, organization, city, product, work of art, recipe, chemical, or sequence of DNA.

Typically, a database has a schema, which is a description of the model, including the types of entities that are in it and the relationships among them.

Wiki is a piece of server software that allows users to freely create and edit Web page content using any Web browser.
