This document outlines the purposes of a university education at The University of Manchester and proposes a course structure for teaching digital literacy. It discusses developing critical thinking, confronting values, mastery of discipline, and preparing students for citizenship. The proposed course would teach students to investigate key themes in the digital society, evaluate online information, and apply knowledge to solve real-world problems. Students would learn to find, evaluate, and share information across platforms while understanding intellectual property and ethics. The course aims to help students develop skills in collaboration, problem solving, communication and working in multidisciplinary teams using digital media and technologies.
