Abstract

This study lays the groundwork for designing digital literacy classes for university students in South Korea by reviewing theoretical discussions and previous classroom practices. Based on an analysis of previous research and related materials, the study examines the syllabi of introductory courses at 10 institutions to explore their digital literacy curricula, determine the contents and values taught at each institution, and the intersection of these curricula with previous theoretical discussions on digital literacy. Evidently, there are inherent limitations due to the size of the dataset. However, it is possible to assess the approach of each institution regarding digital literacy education and explore the current status of education. The results are significant because the study identifies commonalities and differences among them. Moreover, the results can serve as a basis for designing digital literacy classes that fit the Korean context and provide directions for future research to identify other notable aspects.
