Yet, as early adopters, history’s first generation of “always connected” individuals do not have the knowledge and skills to critically explore, build, and connect online.
Need intersection of digital literacy and digital skills- not one exclusive of the other

Do our students recognize the ways in which Facebook’s privacy settings continually shift without user permission,
probably not- I could be better about reading those settings

When is it best to do a Google search versus ask a question on Twitter? Why would students tweet to a particular hashtag or person versus another? When they tweet to people from another country in another time zone, what kind of context do they need to consider? What should they add, remove, or modify in order to communicate better?
very important to consider platform/resource and audience

Digital literacy would focus on helping students choose appropriate images, recognize copyright licensing, and cite or get permissions, in addition to reminding students to use alternative text for images to support those with visual disabilities.
Already recognizing that in my own education there was a lack of digital literacy learning. Was more focus on digital skills (i.e. computer class in high school, typing/Mavis Beacon)

Comparing and contrasting information from a number of sources. Making judgments about the “usefulness” or relevance of a web source based on the content presented. Making judgments about the “truthfulness” or credibility of a web source based on the content presented. Identifying and investigating the author or publisher of web resources. Evaluating how purpose and perspectives shape web resources.
I think this skill is absolutely critical. Information is very accessible on the internet, and it's easy to "prove" certain points using particular key-words. Being critical, reading several sources to assess validity, looking at authors and analyzing their credentials, being aware of who is funding certain journals or articles... all of this information tells a story and eliminates bias
