Media Literacy Practice Test

Responsible digital citizenship means acting online with respect, integrity, and thoughtfulness toward others and the information you encounter. The description that includes engaging ethically online, respecting others, verifying information, protecting privacy, and contributing positively best captures that idea because it covers the essential habits: civility and empathy in interactions, fact-checking before sharing, safeguarding personal data, and using your online influence to add value rather than cause harm.

The other options miss key elements: posting without checking facts spreads misinformation and undermines trust; focusing only on political discussions ignores the wide range of online interactions, including civility and safety; having a private profile and never engaging misses opportunities to participate responsibly and protect privacy through informed, respectful engagement.
