Abstract

Contemporary education relies heavily on new technologies, which have an undeniable impact on learning and are considered a crucial component. In order to acquire technical skills relevant to the 21st century, students need to adapt to the evolving technologies. Education in digital literacy is essential, and as such, it ought to be included in the curriculum of all courses in educational systems. This study set out to assess the degree of digital literacy among students in a high school that placed a strong emphasis on economics, with a particular emphasis on the need for skill development in the context of a culture that values digital knowledge. In addition, the study used a framework derived from earlier research to assess the contribution of nine literacies to digital literacy. The investigation, which was based on a survey of 217 students, revealed that their levels of digital literacy ranged from average to high. The statistical study showed that every suggested literacy in the framework significantly contributed to digital literacy.
