What Is Digital
Literacy?
While the
word "literacy" alone generally refers to reading and writing skills,
when you tack on the word "digital" before it, the term encompasses
much, much more.
Sure,
reading and writing are still very much at the heart of digital literacy. But
given the new and ever-changing ways we use technology to receive and
communicate information, digital literacy also encompasses a broader range of
skills—everything from reading on a Kindle to gauging the validity of a website
or creating and sharing YouTube videos.
The term is
so broad that some experts even stay away from it, preferring to speak more
specifically about particular skills at the intersection of technology and
literacy.
