It teaches them essential life skills as well as academic skills.
By teaching digital literacy to students, they are being prepared to enter adulthood and be successful in their careers. Students don’t always know what they send out into the digital universe will be there forever. Teaching them how to be a positive digital citizen is crucial.]]> 2020-01-05 00:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/simgetoraman15/ma98ug6w0udc/wish/427658168 2- What is Digital Literacy in Education? simgetoraman15 https://padlet.com/simgetoraman15/ma98ug6w0udc/wish/427660017 Many students have access to a personal device. It could be in the form of a phone, tablet, or computer. The challenge is to help educate teachers and parents about digital literacy so they can help students navigate the digital world. In addition, digital
literacy is digital citizenship. This involves
teaching students how to appropriately and safely interact with their digital
community. Digital literacy also involves helping students be more aware of
cyberbullying. Help students think before they post something online. Teach
them about the appropriate personal information to share about themselves with
others on the internet.

Rather than standing in front of the room and lecturing about a topic, have students research and start interacting with material right away.
For example, in a math class, students could go around the room and take pictures of items that are at 90-degree angles. They could then compile those photos into a video with drawings to demonstrate the angle in each photo.
In a science class, instead of labeling a diagram, students could work together to create a webquest.
Digital literacy is a great tool for differentiated instruction. In an English classroom, one group of students might be doing research about an author, while another group reads or listens to a text written by that author, and yet another group works with the teacher on a necessary skill. 
Google Docs is a great tool for collaboration. Students can all be on the same document at the same time while working on their own devices.
Finally, digital literacy helps students expand their knowledge. In a science classroom, students can digitally dissect animals that schools cannot bring into the school. History classes can take field trips to ancient Egypt. English classes can visit the Globe Theater.

As a language instructor, he/has so many liabilities on their shoulder make a competent generation of this tech time. By this the can payed their responsibilities as a member of the digital. It makes sense to assume that the more digitally literate our teachers are, the more they’ll employ these skills in the classroom, which will in turn foster a strong sense of digital citizenship in our students. (Levy, 2018). 
This essential for the language teacher to have some kind of digital skill. This can help her/his out to move forward in this binary time and grow. A teacher may improve their skills, update their knowledge day by day and inspire the students of language learners too.
It is key for the teachers, that we are future-focused and helping students in the preparation of this ever-changing digital society. (Roslaniec, 2018).
