Examples of Digital Literacy programs at Sakon Nakhon Rajabhat University: remote access to subscribed digital libraries around the world, and information literacy introduction for new students

Description:

Sakon Nakhon Rajabhat University (SNRU), driven by the Office of Academic Resources and Information Technology (ARIT), has fully established and operationalized structured digital literacy programs tailored for students, academic faculty, and administrative staff. This initiative is systematically delivered through hybrid workshops and the university’s centralized Learning Management System (LMS).

  • For Students: The university mandates digital skills training and baseline digital literacy examinations through integrated e-learning platforms [https://e-testing.snru.ac.th/]. Courses cover essential English at all levels and the responsible use of digital media to prepare students for a knowledge-based economy.
  • For Academic & Administrative Staff: Continuous professional development programs are regularly conducted. These include hands-on workshops on digital transformation tools, such as applying artificial intelligence (AI) to institutional operations and risk management, alongside training on paperless workflows and electronic signature systems.
  • Evaluation & Continuous Revision: The digital literacy framework moves beyond implementation into ongoing evaluation. Training outcomes and test data are periodically analyzed to identify skill gaps, which directly inform revisions to LMS course content. This ensures the curriculum remains up to date with emerging technologies, ethical AI guidelines, and national cybersecurity standards.
