![]() ![]() Digital literacy is all about knowing how to use a computer, doing online search, critically retrieving information, evaluating it, and transforming it into knowledge (Buckingham, 2006). Digital literacy is considered the driver of individuals’ lives in this digital society, from carrying out personal tasks to education to being employed. As such, individuals now require digital skills to better perform day to day activities in their personal and professional life. The use of digital technologies in the twenty-first century is increasingly prevalent and has permeated all aspects of human livelihood. Although DLIP has been developed for the Pacific Islands it has global applicability. ![]() The Cohen’s d test was used and the results show that the intervention was moderately effective. ![]() The effectiveness of the DLIP was evaluated by calculating the effect size. The construct validity was measured using the spearman’s correlation test and since the values for all the constructs were above 0.3, the DLIP was valid. The developed intervention was deemed to be reliable with the KR-20 value of 0.86. To test the reliability of the intervention, the Kuder- Richardson- 20 (KR-20) test was performed. An online module has been designed for each of these six literacies, and the concept of game-based learning has been used to engage the users and secure high user satisfaction. For the development of DLIP, digital literacy is stipulated in this research as a universal framework that consists of six different literacies media, information, technology, computer, visual, and communication literacy. This research paper articulates design details, validity, reliability and effectiveness of a new online modulated digital literacy intervention program (DLIP). There have been scales developed to measure individuals' digital literacy competencies however, intervention programs have been only a few. In the digital age, advocating and improving digital literacy is a global challenge. ![]()
