Digital Literacy
Most people spend hours online every day without understanding how any of it works. I built a framework to change that, and a test to prove it.
Most people spend hours online every day without understanding how any of it works. I built a framework to change that, and a test to prove it.
20 minutes covering the full theory: how I organize content into four elements, what the Digital Literacy Test measures, and what schools should be doing differently.
The tools changed faster than the curriculum. Most people are online every day with no real framework for understanding what they're doing.
An email, a TikTok, a boardroom presentation. The mechanics are the same. How information moves between people is the most useful thing nobody teaches.
That's what this research is for. A framework and a way to measure where you actually stand.
Every piece of content on the internet is made of these four elements. Understanding how they combine is the foundation of digital literacy.
YouTube, TikTok, X, Instagram, email, websites. Each platform combines these elements differently.
The DLT measures how well you understand these four elements and how they're being used on you every day.
How well do you actually understand digital communication? Take the Digital Literacy Test and find out your level. About 5 minutes.
