Before diving into the readings and videos for the course, I really asked myself what I knew about digital literacy, the Web, and how education is incorporated into this mix. How are these topics tied together? Does education act as a bridge between being digitally literate and mastering the Web or do they all act in unison as one cohesive unit? I found myself questioning what I know about what it meant to be digitally literate. I confess that I thought digital literacy was much like setting up your SmartTV or programming your Mac when you first turn it on. I thought it was about being able to follow directions in order to successfully operate that system. However, my original thought did not capture what digital literacy actually entails and how important it can be for the future of the digital world.
