To address the needs of this new digital classroom, exploring digital literacy curriculum components is inevitable because the use of digital resources depends on the competences in using digital resources. In the fast-growing knowledge society, digital literacy curriculum has become one of the most important subjects. Whilst digital literacy seems to be a term that is mostly associated with higher education, its application to digital curriculum is yet to be widely exploited. This paper presents a digital literacy curriculum mixed model for higher education, in order to foster the development of digital literacy skills and explores the components of digital literacy curriculum with the aim of having students who can use digital tools to advance learning and keeping up with changing technologies as well as become global digital citizens. The components of digital literacy as outlined in this study are important in the use of digital resources because of the proliferation of digital information presently experienced due to a series of developmental digital activities in our world.
