In today's global culture and economy, in which individuals have access to information at their fingertips at all times, digital and media literacy are essential to participate in society. But what specific competencies must young citizens acquire? How do these competencies influence pedagogy? How are student knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors changed? What are the best ways to assess students' digital and media literacy? These questions underscore what parents, educators, health professionals, and community leaders need to know to ensure that youth become digitally and media literate. Experimental and pilot programs in the digital and media literacy fields are yielding insights, but gaps in understanding and lack of support for research and development continue to impede growth in these areas. Learning environments no longer depend on seat time in factory-like school settings. Learning happens anywhere, anytime, and productivity in the workplace depends on digital and media literacy. To create the human capital necessary for success and sustainability in a technology-driven world, we must invest in the literacy practices of our youth. In this article, we make recommendations for research and policy priorities.
在当今的全球文化和经济环境中，个人随时都能轻松获取信息，数字素养和媒体素养对于参与社会至关重要。但是，年轻公民必须具备哪些具体能力？这些能力如何影响教学法？学生的知识、态度和行为是如何改变的？评估学生数字素养和媒体素养的最佳方法是什么？这些问题凸显了家长、教育工作者、健康专业人员和社区领袖为确保年轻人具备数字素养和媒体素养而需要了解的内容。数字素养和媒体素养领域的实验和试点项目正在产生见解，但在理解方面的差距以及对研发缺乏支持，继续阻碍着这些领域的发展。学习环境不再依赖于类似工厂的学校环境中的课时。学习随时随地都在发生，职场中的生产力取决于数字素养和媒体素养。为了在技术驱动的世界中创造成功和可持续发展所需的人力资本，我们必须投资于年轻人的素养培养实践。在本文中，我们对研究和政策重点提出建议。
