Being digitally literate implies having skills and capabilities across a number of domains, including the ability to

  • use technology;
  • find, use and critically evaluate information;
  • curate data and media sources;
  • communicate, collaborate and participate in online environments;
  • manage your online identity as well as your personal security and privacy; and
  • create online content, not just consume it.
