The second element of digital citizenship is digital commerce. Digital commerce is the electronic buying and selling of goods. Digital commerce focuses on the tools and safeguards in place to assist those buying, selling, banking, or using money in any way in the digital space. Career and technical education use the tools of technology to show students the path for their future.
Digital commerce defines the action of buying and selling on the internet, and the safety revolving around it. It is important for teachers to show students how to be effective and safe consumers in the digital economy.
