Digital education is no longer a supplementary tool for a generation that primarily consumes information online. After the pandemic switched the online button, digital education first came to the rescue of continuity in education; and proficiency in digital literacy skills is one of the most sought-after skills for professional success. Digital platforms offer access to a plethora of online resources, including e-books, videos, articles, tutorials, and research papers. Equipping students with cybersecurity education is equally crucial to help them navigate the digital world safely and responsibly. While students now have a strong sense of preparedness and ability to question internet information, the depth of ability to analyze intentions behind information, and therefore critical thinking skills around information still need to be cultivated.
This award honors educational institutions that effectively incorporate digital tools and resources, enhancing learning experiences and equipping students with essential digital literacy skills.
