Abstract

The use of digital technology immerses young people in the online environment of "digital survival", which not only changes their lifestyle, learning mode, and social form, but also affects their values, technological perception, thinking mode, and cultural identity. Starting from the "scenario" of ubiquitous and young age exposure to digital intelligence among young people, based on the perspectives of value orientation, media scenarios, and digital abilities, this paper proposes the "digital intelligence media literacy" of young people, analyzes the types of "network media literacy", and conducts a survey on the "digital intelligence media literacy" of young people through a questionnaire. Finally, analyze the form of youth digital literacy education led by "school+family" and coordinated development, and promote a new pattern of Chinese style youth network literacy education.
