Digital intelligence is the sum of social, emotional, and cognitive abilities that enable individuals to face the challenges and adapt to the demands of life in the digital world.[1] An emerging intelligence fostered by human interaction with information technology, it has been suggested that recognition of this intelligence will expand the scope of teaching and learning in the 21st century[2] and all aspects of one's personal and professional lives.[3]
The term is also used in businesses to refer to the information obtained through technologies and making use of them as an online marketing strategy[4][5] and intelligence in the context of cyber security such as that mapped out by Global Commission on Internet Governance.[6] Digital intelligence in this article refers to a new type of intelligence as a human capacity that combines knowledge, ways of knowing and the ability to interact effectively in a cultural or community setting.[2]
