What is digital literacy and why is it so important? Digital literacy is being able to identify the purpose and effective use of technological devices, such as computers, tablets, and mobile phones, and digital processes, such as video calling, creating collaborative documents, and securing one’s digital footprint. In today's technology-driven world, knowledge and mastery of these common digital tools are imperative for gaining employment in nearly every industry.
