Abstract

We are now living in risk society. In particular, the COVID-19 pandemic
in 2020 has brought us a lot of challenges and the opportunities to re-examine
the role of digital learning. There is no doubt about the role of digital learning or

distance education in risk society. This paper highlights that educators should adopt
the perspectives quite different from traditional teaching and try to conclude the
competence and literacy required by digital learners. This paper also emphasizes
that learners should be aware that they are not only information consumers but

also information producers in the digital world. The learners should carefully
examine the credibility of online information. For the success of digital learning,
some other higher-level competences and literacies are also needed such as online
self-regulation, online sourcing skills and collaborative problem-solving ability.

With aforementioned competences and literacies, the students are able to continue
learning in risk society and thus achieve the goal of self-directed learning and life-
long learning.

Keywords: digital learning, risk society, online technology, digital competence,
online information literacy
