Digital Fluency /1, Module 1:, Emerging Technologies ( cɔd«iorpa r leat ), Introduction, Digital fluency is very important to lcarn in today's world. This is because in, this digital age everything is digitized, such as trade, cducation, government defense, ctc. So we nced to leam technology in today's age and create technologics globally., Strategies when performing incremental business tasks to turn on new lights that test, digital transformations. How can we maintain this balance between the old and the new,, and what path is right for us to modernize? To be ready to lead our companies in the, future, we need to increase our digital fluency. If we don't, we risk becoming obsolcte, or worse, making critical mistakes that harm real people. We need to be digital fluent, to speak and translate the language of the technologies and technicians that shape our, livelihoods and institutions., Most approaches to 'Going Digital' focus on only one or two elements of, the larger equation of digital fluency. Maybe we start with finding out what tools are, available, or get a briefing on business model trends. That's like learning a few phrases, in a foreign language while you are away on vacation-useful, but not the same as being, able to have a spontancous conversation., 2/ 14

2/ Emerging Technologies, Why 'Fluency?", If we want to lead in a digital world, we need more than catchphrases- wc neo!, fluency, or we 'll never be able to cause the 'disruptive' movements people taik abot, Fluency includes not only words but also culture, ways of thinking. and a lot ol pracice, Similarly, effective digital strategics require more than a cursory knowledge o en, terms-they must introduce new paradiums to bridge the gaps between technnologian, and human elements of change, We must decode the technical elements to help husiness, leaders understand their tech counterparts, And we must help IT leaders and developers, understand the changing world their business counterparts arc facing by conneenng the, dots between emerging technologies and their impact on markets and organizations., What is digital flucncy?, 'Fluency' derives from the word Flow' and when wc think about being 'Fluent' in any, context, it refers to being flexiblc, accurate, cfficient, and appropriate,, In other words, the way we use skills, language, and specch flows naturally and casily., In a digital context for learning, flucncy involves using technologics., "Readily and Strategically to learm, to work, and to play, and the infusion of technology, in teaching and learning to improve outcoines for all students.", Broadly speaking, digital fluency is a combination oľ:, . Digital or technical, proficiency: able lo understand, select, and usc the technologies, and technological systems;, • Dieital literacy: cognitive or intellectial competencies, which include being able n, read, create, cvaluate, make judgements, and apply technical skills while doine co, • Social competence or dispositional knowledgc: the ability to relate to othoe a, communicale with them effectively., 3/ 14

Digital Flucncy /3, • "Flucncy" is broader than "literacy.", Being 'digitally literate`mcans acquiring the skills to make and crcatc mcaning, and, select technologies to do so. Being fluent requires competencies and capabilitics that, go beyond the skill level. Someone who is digitally flucnt not only selects tools and, knows what to do with them, but can explain why they work in the way they do and, how they might adapt what they do if the context were to change., • For example, if you are literatc, you might be able to follow instructions to set up, a sharcd document onlinc and use it for a clear purpose. If you arc fluent, you can, self-select from a range of tools to achieve the same outcome, navigate collaborative, spaces effectively and confidently with other peoplc., 4/ 14

1. Digital Proficiency: being able to understand and use of technology, 6/ Emerging Technologies, Why we all need to be digitally fluent?, Crucially, the outcome of being digitally fluent rclatcs to issucs of responsibility, cquity, and access. We all have the right to fully participate in a digitally-enabled education, system and in an increasingly digitized society. If we work with fluency in the way we, use technologies, we are able to keep ourselves safc online and take full advantage of, opportunities such as being able to apply for work, manage our finances, or be part of, our local community., Digital Fluency Vs. Digital Literacy, Digital fluency differs from digital literacy. In fact, it is broader than digital literacy., Digital fluency is not just familiarity with the digital world (like digital literacy), it's, about effective and proficient navigation and function in the digital world. A digitally, literate individual may know how to access social media platforms, while a digitally, fluent individual will understand how to create ads on those social media platforms to, promote their business., Three aspects of digital fluency, 2. Digital Literacy: being able to read and create content while also being oble to us, technical skill with technologies, 3. Digital Competence: being able to communication with othere, 5/ 14
