Digital Literacy is the ability to navigate, evaluate, and create information using different types of technology. It also means using and knowing about technology and being aware of the effects it can have on people. Don't spend a lot of your time on the internet or you will become addicted. "One gifted boy in Korea became so addicted to the game 'World Of Warcraft' that he didn't eat or drink for days and eventually died from dehydration. He played for 36 hours straight and left a note saying that he wanted to join the heroes of the game he worshiped". You do not want to repeat the awful events that happened to this innocent boy. Digital Literacy is an important skill set to have because it helps you life a safe life on the internet and helps you learn how to control your internet addictions.
