Abstract: Increasingly sophisticated technologies are expanding opportunities to create, use and share digital and multimodal texts based on different perspectives and motives. Among the prerequisites for participating actively in a democratic society is adopting an analytical and reflective approach towards texts – that is, developing critical digital literacy. Therefore, research on teaching and learning activities aimed at developing critical digital literacy awareness – namely, critical digital literacy work – is crucial.
