Digital Literacy for Undergraduate Students: Syllabus and Detailed Course Guide

Considering the recognition that computers have different consequences in various academic and professional domains, the course was designed as a sequence of modules. To every single one of us, digital literacy signifies things different. In order to achieve the status of "digital literate," a person must master the computer skills and digital resources required to achieve their desired level of literacy in relation to their academic field, employment requirements, or individual goals. Practical assignments and "hands-on" computer experience will be highly valued in the course. The course will incorporate computer applications as well as other technology-related topics. 

Graduate-level learners who master this course will be more prepared to comprehend, use, and apply digital technologies (such as computers, digital cameras, and mobile phones) in ways that are ethical, efficient, and successful. Modern technology is more widely used especially at present than in the past, and the need for them keeps growing. Human activity is being significantly facilitated and altered by Information and Communications Technology (ICT), which permits us to live, work, and think in ways that most of us never would have imagined possible. Graduate students will actively explore the core ideas, expertise, aptitudes, and dispositions for utilizing technology in a variety of contexts, including the classroom as well as external of it.
