The research will be conducted with 4th grade students (9-12 years old) who are receiving education in a primary school affiliated to Ağrı Provincial Directorate of National Education and who meet the inclusion criteria. Students will be divided into 2 groups as experimental and control groups by simple random method. Digital environment privacy literacy training will be provided to the experimental group, while no training will be provided to the control group. Data will be collected using "Child Information Form", "Autonomy Survey" and "Primary School Students' Privacy Consciousness Scale".

Students will be provided with digital privacy literacy training designed using the puzzle method, which will consist of 8 sessions over a 12-week period.
Time frame: 1 weeks
The survey was developed to determine the level of autonomy of 4th and 5th grade primary school students. The autonomy survey consists of 2 sections. The first section contains 20 items regarding children's decisional autonomy. The second section contains 19 items regarding children's behavioral autonomy. The survey is a four-point Likert-type scale and is scored as never: 1, sometimes: 2, often: 3, always: 4. There are no reverse-coded items in the survey. All items in the survey are collected according to their sections to measure the relevant autonomy. As the total score obtained from the survey increases, the level of autonomy also increases. Researchers found the Cronbach-Alpha internal consistency coefficient of the survey as .84.
In this study, the first section of the autonomy survey, decisional autonomy, was used. Scores between 20 and 80 are obtained from this section.
Time frame: 1 weeks
It was developed to determine the level of privacy awareness of primary school 3rd and 4th grade students. The scale consists of 4 factors and 16 items. These factors are; Personal Security, Sharing of Personal Information, Social Media Privacy, Parental Control. The scale is a 3-point Likert type and is scored as disagree: 1, undecided: 2, agree: 3. There are 2 reverse items in the scale (items 7 and 13). The score that can be obtained from the scale varies between 16 and 48 points. The sub-factors and total score in the scale are obtained by adding the item scores.
Time frame: 1 weeks
The introductory information form, which was created by the researcher by scanning the relevant literature, consists of a total of 9 questions regarding the student's age, gender, mother's education level, father's education level, socioeconomic status, who owns the digital device he/she uses to access the internet, the frequency of use of digital devices, the purpose for which he/she uses the internet, and whether he/she has a social media account.
