description Students’ awareness of digital citizenship (DC) is a growing topic in educational technology. Teachers’ beliefs regarding this awareness are a primary factor to influence this awareness. The current research aimed to verify the level of upper-basic schoolteachers’ beliefs about their students’ awareness of DC. It also intended to verify whether this level is significantly different due to teachers’ gender, discipline, academic qualification, and experience. The present research followed random sampling and the sample for the present research consisted of 153 teachers. The teachers were upper-basic schoolteachers that teach Arabic language, mathematics, and technology. The data were collected using a DC questionnaire, while the analysis was done using statistical exams, specifically one-sample t-test, independent-sample t-test, and ANOVA. The research results indicated that the mean score of schoolteachers’ beliefs about their students’ awareness of Cyberbullying, Digital Privacy, and Digital Netiquette was significantly higher than the good DC beliefs score, while the mean score of schoolteachers’ beliefs about their students’ awareness of Digital Identity and Digital Footprint was significantly higher than the normal DC beliefs score. In addition, the results indicated no significant differences in teachers’ beliefs about the awareness of DC’s components due to gender, academic qualification, or years of experience. Moreover, there are no significant differences in teachers’ beliefs about students’ DC’s awareness due to the discipline, except for Digital Privacy.
