DIGITAL LITERACY

We all know what traditional literacy means. Literacy is the ability to read and write. But in today's digital world, been literate isn't enough anymore. It is important for young people to become digitally literate as well.

Digital literacy means been able to understand and use technology. It relates to the ability to find, use and create information online in a beneficial and useful ways. Digital literacy also means knowing the limitations of technology and understanding the dangers and precautions that the use of technology requires. It is different from been computer literate. Sure, been able to use a computer is a part of it. But digital literacy goes more in-depth than the simple use of computer.

Digital literacy can be simple or complex. In the simplest terms, digital literacy means things such as the ability to navigate a website, send an email or use social media. However, digital literacy also refers to a deeper understanding of the technology that surround us. It can also refer to practical software skills such as creating a blog, coding a website or an app.

Digital literacy can play a powerful role in helping people connect, learn, engage with their community, and create more promising futures. Simply reading articles online does not address digital literacy, so it is important for everyone to understand the variety of content and possibilities that are accessible online.

This digital literacy I am talking about is useful for individuals( that is young people, students, school owners, gov't organizations and the entire community).

I will pause here and you can go through this content so you can have a glimpse of what digital literacy is all about. Feel free to add your question and feedbacks are welcome.

To be continued...

Remember sharing is caring.
