REFLECTION FOR THE TOPIC: DIGITAL LITERACY SKILLS IN THE 21ST
CENTURY
The definition of what it means to be “literate” has changed drastically in the past
few years. In past times one would be considered literate if they were capable of
reading and writing at a basic level. Now with advancements in technology and the
internet, literacy has evolved into digital literacy. The Vimeo video we watched for
class explained how digital media is changing which skills are necessary to navigate
literature and literacy in today’s world. Students must now be able to utilize online
learning tools and social media platforms. In order to explain digital literacy, we must
first see why it is so important to be digitally literate. Digital literacy also creates new
ways to teach and learn within the classroom. Students are discovering new ways to
interact with their interests online and through other digital media. They are no longer
confined to just physical text when it comes to reading or learning more about their
possible interests. Students also need to be digitally literate so that they can be safe
and smart while navigating social media sites. It is inevitable that students will get
engaged with social media so schools should work to prepare them for it. Warner gives
us an example of why it is important for students to know how Twitter is a form of
writing that they need to be prepared to use. Retweeting is a form of student writing
as they are retweeting posts they enjoyed or agreed with in order to better define
themselves. Students run the risk of distorting their digital image or getting into
something they didn’t mean to if they do not fully understand how to navigate social
media. Digital literacy and its place in the 21st century is a concept that many are still
trying to figure out. The advancement of technology and the internet’s rising
importance in our society has made digital literacy a required skill for everyone. It is
already an integral skill for many jobs and that number will only rise within the coming
years. It is up to us educators to decipher the best methods for teaching digital literacy
and to help our students become fluent in this new type of literacy.
