Abstract
Improving literacy skills has been of interest to researchers and it is strongly correlated with academic success. Investment in the education literacy is crucial even now or, more precisely, even more now, as it represents a significant part of preparing students for their independent learning and future work. In today's technologically driven, knowledge-based culture, young people need to be expert readers, writers, and thinkers to contend, compete, and succeed in the global economy. Higher education is evolving dynamically worldwide. After the medical crises during COVID-19 pushed faculty and higher education to shift to a totally digital environment, while facing economic and social insecurity, fast-paced changing labor work demands urged higher education to questioning its missions and roles. Digital technologies tremendously changed learning environment, especially the way knowledge is conveyed, transferred, and build up, as well as the way information is created, stored, and distributed.
