Teachers' Professional Digital Competence and Children's Online Safety Education: A Systematic Review of the Intersection
Abstract
This systematic literature review examines how teacher Professional Digital Competence (PDC) literature addresses children's online safety, and conversely, how Online Safety Education (OSE) literature addresses teachers' professional competence. The study follows PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Research Questions: RQ1: How is children's online safety addressed in teacher PDC literature? RQ2: How are teachers' professional competencies addressed in children's OSE literature? RQ3: Do studies exist at the intersection of the two domains? If so, how do they connect the two, and what gaps remain?
