| Summary: | To counter the negative consequences of social media, youth should be socialized in using the media for altruistic ends such as civic engagement. Schools play a critical role in instilling civic values, disposition, and skills among the youth. The current study examined the relationship of classroom openness to online civic engagement with digital literacy as mediating variable. The study was conducted among a national sample of 1,005 grades 9-10 students in the Philippines. Classroom openness is a classroom environment where students are encouraged to discuss their opinions on socio-political issues with teachers and classmates. Findings show that classroom openness promotes both digital literacy and online civic engagement. Implications for the development of classroom openness and online civic engagement were discussed. |
