According to the framework of the key competences, the digital citizenship education is the answer to ¼ of the goals, which are at the heart of the European Education Area. The ‘Digital Citizenship Education and Democratic Participation’ course aims to help teachers understand the concept of digital citizenship education and explore one of its domains – democratic participation in the digital environment. It will show how technology provides us with new tools for active participation in society on all levels – locally, nationally and globally, but will also make us question which are the positive and the negative traits in each of those tools.  The course draws attention to the role of the school in the development of competences, necessary for successful participation in democratic societies and presents key elements that teachers can include into their practice in order to help their learners become active and informed citizens. Teachers will be also able to explore issues that engage their learners and plan a learning activity that shows how to use technology to make their voices heard. Although traditional online courses contain a lot of information and ready answers, this course is different. It is based on a reflective approach to learning and involves a dialogue between all participants of a learning process. The participants will be asked to use a learning diary that will help them learn from their past experiences, learn from each other, and turn surface learning into deep learning.
