Digital Literacy

What do I need to understand before relying on a digital tool or message?

Digital literacy includes checking a claim, recognising a commercial interest, understanding permissions and knowing where a tool may fail. The framework connects practical skills with agency and asks institutions to make systems understandable and accessible. People should not be blamed for failing to navigate a design that conceals important choices. Support matters alongside individual learning.

A question to sit with (optional): What does this tool do with my information, and how can I verify an important result?
