摘要

甚至在2019冠状病毒病全球大流行之前,世界上就出现了许多数字工具和技术的采用和扩散,即全球数字化转型。这为数字包容铺平了道路,特别是通过电子商务和共享服务平台,这有助于减少进入壁垒,并为各收入群体创造了丰富的社会经济机会。因此,由于全球向数字化转型的快速转变,数字素养成为现代生活的一个重要方面。自1995年以来,许多学者研究了数字识字的好处。本文的主要目标是调查数字扫盲如何作为社会创新和社会经济转型的政策工具的良好做法和经验教训。实证方法是解释性的,通过对数字扫盲的理解,将其分为三个主要支柱:(i)数字扫盲的演变和基本概念,(ii)数字扫盲的框架和措施,以及(iii)与数字扫盲相关的能力和技能。本文还研究了数字扫盲能力和技能如何影响新加坡和阿联酋的社会创新举措,影响个人、家庭和社区的社会经济转型。我们从实地观察和政策实施出发的解释方法,为数字扫盲研究及其对人民和社区的社会经济影响提供了多维视角。这些见解可以帮助这一领域的新研究人员更全面地了解数字素养的广泛生态系统及其作为社会经济变革的关键驱动力对社区和国家的广泛影响。

Digital literacies as policy catalysts of social innovation and socio-economic transformation: Interpretive analysis from Singapore and the UAE

Even before the COVID-19 global pandemic, the world saw the adoption and proliferation of numerous digital tools and technologies, or a global digital transformation. This paved the way for digital inclusion, particularly through e-commerce and shared services platforms which helped to reduce barriers to entry and created abundant socio-economic opportunities across income groups. As a result, digital literacy becomes a vital aspect of modern life due to the rapid global shift toward this digital transformation. Numerous scholars have investigated the benefits of digital literacies since 1995. The primary objective of this paper is to investigate good practices and lessons learned on how digital literacy may serve as a policy instrument for social innovation and socio-economic transformations. The empirical approach is interpretive, through an understanding of digital literacy categorized into three primary pillars: (i) the evolution and foundational concepts of digital literacy, (ii) frameworks and measures of digital literacy, and (iii) the capacity and skills associated with digital literacy. The paper also examines how digital literacy capacity and skills shape social innovation initiatives in Singapore and the UAE, impacting the socio-economic transformation of individuals, families, and communities. Our interpretive approach from field observations and policy implementation, offers a multi-dimensional perspective on digital literacy research, and its socio-economic impact on people and communities. These insights can assist researchers new to this field to gain a more thorough understanding of digital literacy’s broad ecosystem and its extensive impact on communities and nations as a key driver of socio-economic change.
