Digital literacy and information dissemination in ESP classes

Abstract

The printed format of information has been replaced by digital tools which have acquired a particular importance for learners and information users in the 21st century. Developing digital literacy and encouraging information dissemination through various channels, videos, visuals etc., have also become a relevant part of the teaching environment, especially in higher education. The right selection of the communication content by means of digital tools is equally significant to provide a high-quality teaching act in ESP classes. The present work aims to highlight how digital literacy contributes to a better and more creative educational setting. At the same time, the variety of tools used to disseminate information is even more valuable as it helps to develop critical thinking and contributes to the engagement of students in a more inspiring and motivating learning environment.
