Digital skills help students use technology effectively, evaluate information and collaborate in modern learning and work environments. The most useful skills depend on the role and industry, but digital literacy is a valuable foundation.
Students should practise using common productivity tools, managing files, communicating online and working collaboratively. They should learn how to evaluate online information, identify suspicious messages and protect personal data. They should also understand how to use AI tools responsibly and verify important outputs.
Practical assignments can help learners demonstrate these capabilities. For example, students might prepare a report, collaborate on a shared project, present findings or create a portfolio of work.
