There is a nice JISC report out on ‘Developing students’ digital literacy’. They define digital literacies as ‘the capabilities, which fit someone for living, learning and working in a digital society’. They list the follow seven elements:
Media literacy – critically read and creatively produce academic and professional communications in a range of media. Information literacy – find, interpret, evaluate, manage and share information. Digital scholarship – participate in emerging academic, professional and research practices that depend on digital systems. Learning skills – study and learn effectively in technology-rich environments, formal and informal. Communications and collaborations – participate in digital networks for learning and research. Career and identity management – manage digital reputation and online identity. ICT literacy – adopt, adapt and use digital devices, applications and services.
