Abstract

This study analyzes students’ technological ethics through the lens of the Digital Citizenship Framework, focusing on a case study at Sunan Kudus State Islamic University. The research is motivated by the growing integration of digital technologies in academic activities, which introduces new challenges related to digital literacy, data security, communication ethics, and responsible online behavior. A qualitative-descriptive approach was employed to explore students’ digital behavior patterns, ethical perceptions, and their experiences in managing technology-based academic interactions. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation, and were analyzed using a thematic approach. The findings reveal that students generally possess a basic awareness of technological ethics, yet inconsistencies remain in their practical application, especially concerning information security, digital plagiarism, and academic communication in digital spaces. These issues are influenced by varying levels of digital literacy, the lack of habitual ethical practices in online activities, and the limited institutional regulations governing comprehensive digital behavior. This study underscores the importance of strengthening technological ethics through value-based digital literacy curricula, continuous guidance, and collaborative efforts involving lecturers, students, and institutional stakeholders. Effective implementation is expected to foster a healthy, secure, and integrity-driven digital ecosystem within the university environment.
