Here’s an excerpt:

“Digital literacy means really understanding the digital devices we use and how they impact our lives – both for good… but also the challenges. That’s not often something we recognize.

“How are these digital devices impacting how we communicate with each other in our friendships? How are these digital devices impacting the information that we consume and what we feel is credible? How is it impacting our ability to concentrate?

“So digital literacy means understanding the social and psychological pieces of using ditigal technology that often go unexamined.”
