According to the results of the study, during COVID-19 pandemic, there was an increase in digital citizenship awareness of students who spend more time in social media and the ones who improved digital technology usage skills developed online information searching strategies. According to the model analysed, online information searching strategies and information literacy have an effect on digital citizenship while online information searching strategies have an effect on information literacy.
