Using technology tools effectively to address specific learning challenges is just one aspect of digital literacies for teaching. These literacies encompass the abilities to locate, use, summarise, evaluate, create, and communicate information while using digital technologies and web-based platforms. They also include the expertise to engage safely, responsibly, and ethically in online communities and networks.\n<\/p>\n<p>What does digital literacy mean to you?
