To me DL absolutely includes understanding the politics and economy of the web - and internet safety is just one very small element of DL. To be effective learners and citizens I think we need that broader understanding - now just to convince those trying to integrate Digital Literacy into their curricula! Lou Hi Graham

I agree with you but do think it also depends on how broadly you define Digital Literacy. To me DL absolutely includes understanding the politics and economy of the web – and internet safety is just one very small element of DL. To be effective learners and citizens I think we need that broader understanding – now just to convince those trying to integrate Digital Literacy into their curricula!
