Despite the advanced development of technology has played a critical role in promoting a global community for people around the globe, it has been paid little attention in the literature that explores teachers' and students' readiness to become part of the digital citizenship particularly in the Indonesian education context. It is thus the objective of the present study to examine Indonesian teachers' and students' perception and their level of digital citizenship. Using a non-probability sampling technique, a total of 157 participants participated in the survey, including 39 teachers and 118 students. Many participants were from vocational-secondary schools (N = 58) and non-vocational secondary schools (N = 99). However, after a screening process, of 157 datasets, only 98 data were used for the quantitative data analysis using the Rasch modelling. Rasch modelling method was used for the quantitative data analysis. The findings of the current study revealed that teachers and students had a high-level level of digital citizenship. The teacher and student participants also had a positive view digital citizenship. However, although teachers and students perceived that the internet had helped them develop an understanding of political and social issues, they were reported to have fewer political activities online. They were reluctant to discuss political and social issues in the online community. Findings also showed that the participants' political activity was statistically different in reference to their age, although teachers and students were shown to have a similar level of digital citizenship. Recommendations were thus offered based on the findings.
尽管技术的先进发展在促进全球社区形成方面发挥了关键作用，但在探索教师和学生准备好成为数字公民的文献中，特别是在印度尼西亚的教育背景下，这一点却很少受到关注。因此，本研究的目的是考察印度尼西亚教师和学生对数字公民的认知及其数字公民水平。采用非概率抽样技术，共有157名参与者参与了调查，其中包括39名教师和118名学生。许多参与者来自职业中学（N = 58）和非职业中学（N = 99）。然而，经过筛选过程，在157个数据集中，只有98个数据用于使用拉施模型进行定量数据分析。定量数据分析采用拉施建模方法。当前研究的结果表明，教师和学生具有较高水平的数字公民素养。教师和学生参与者对数字公民也有积极的看法。然而，尽管教师和学生认为互联网帮助他们增进了对政治和社会问题的理解，但据报道他们在网上的政治活动较少。他们不愿意在在线社区讨论政治和社会问题。研究结果还表明，尽管教师和学生的数字公民素养水平相似，但参与者的政治活动在年龄方面存在统计学差异。因此，根据研究结果提出了建议。
