Abstract

This study analyzed the features of norms formed in mobile-based science problem-solving and interpreted them from the perspective of digital citizenship. For this, we implemented two mobile-based science problem-solving activities for nine elementary school preparatory teachers composed of two groups, and analyzed the norms observed in their activities. As a result, four norms were found as follows. First, the information presented as a basis should be scientifically reliable. Second, the information need to be searched widely, but the information should be selected and reconstructed in relation to the problem. Third, in a mobile environment, the ideas should be clearly expressed and understood. Fourth, courtesies in mobile interaction should be represented more politely than in face-to-face interaction. Based on the four norms found in this study, we discussed the characteristics and factors of digital citizenship for judging scientifically reliable and relevant information and expressing ideas clearer in mobile environment. Finally, we suggested the educational implications for fostering digital citizens who can judge and practice 'science issues' in a 'mobile environment'.
