Digital Literacy: refers to the knowledge, skills, and
behaviours used in a broad range of digital devices
such as smartphones, tablets and laptops
Digital Citizenship: is the concept of educating students
about how to use technology appropriately. This
involves not misusing it to disadvantage others.
Cyber Safety: is the ability to act in a safe and
