Research on Pathways for Enhancing University Students' Digital Literacy in the Era of Artificial Intelligence

Abstract

With the continuous development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, the landscape of higher education is undergoing significant transformation. This paper focuses on the core issue of cultivating college students' digital literacy, expounds on the value of fostering college students' digital literacy in the context of the AI era, and analyzes three major current predicaments: over-reliance on technology and dulled thinking, lack of resources and an inadequate curriculum system, and ethical misconduct and security risks. Furthermore, it systematically proposes comprehensive countermeasures, including the hierarchical restructuring of university curriculum systems, collaborative governance among multiple stakeholders, and the systematic enhancement of teachers' capabilities. The aim is to construct a multi-dimensional and full-chain ecosystem for digital literacy cultivation, thereby providing theoretical support and practical guidance for fostering college students' digital literacy.
