| dc.description.abstract | Rapid changes are occurring in life owing to information and communication technologies. During this change period, digital identities have begun to emerge. These identities are associated with actions that users perform in online environments. A digital footprint is formed with these actions. The purpose of this study is to determine the digital footprint awareness and digital footprint experiences of higher education students. In order to collect data for the study, researchers developed a data collection tool titled ‘A survey for digital media use'. The study group consisted of 508 higher education students from 41 Turkish universities. Data were collected through an online-form where participation was on a volunteer basis. The findings of the research show that students have a high level of digital footprint awareness (x = 4.251) and a low level of digital footprint experience (x = 1.907). © 2019 SciencePark Research, Organization & Counseling.
