2024-10-13 // SuperPodium
The fifth season of the nationwide campaign to test digital literacy, "Digital Dictation," has commenced with over 50,000 Russians participating in the first few hours.

The opening of the fifth season of the nationwide campaign to test digital literacy, "Digital Dictation," took place in Moscow on October 10. The event was organized by the Russian Association of Electronic Communications (RAEC). The opening ceremony was conducted by Sergey Grebenikov, the director of RAEC, and blogger Zhenya Iskandarova. During the discussion, representatives from businesses and the government discussed methods and resources for teaching digital literacy to students, prospects for increasing cyber literacy among the population, ways to enhance the digital skills of individuals of different age groups, the importance of financial cyber literacy training, and methods of protecting personal data.

Eugene Khasin, the Acting Head of the Department of Cybersecurity Enhancement at the Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media of the Russian Federation, welcomed the participants and emphasized the importance of continuous learning in the field of digital literacy. Grebenikov also stated that being digitally literate is one of the most crucial skills in modern times.

"From Kaliningrad to Sakhalin Island, the 'Digital Dictation' campaign has begun, allowing everyone to test their knowledge of digital literacy. Within the first few hours of the campaign, over 50,000 people have already participated. This is an excellent result for the beginning, and we will multiply it. This year, even more people will be able to participate in the campaign, as the project's website has been adapted for people with disabilities," said Grebenikov.

Also present at the opening of "Digital Dictation" was Dmitry Ontoiev, an advisor to the head of the Moscow City Department of Information Technologies. He emphasized that for the second year in a row, a separate dictation for Muscovites is being held as part of the campaign. It is worth mentioning that last year, Moscow took first place among regions in terms of the digital literacy index, sharing the top spot with Karelia.

To participate in the "Digital Dictation" and test their knowledge of the basics of digital literacy, anyone interested can do so until October 28 on the official website. "Digital Dictation" is an annual nationwide campaign aimed at determining the level of digital literacy. It has been taking place on the corresponding platform since 2019. In 2024, the campaign will be held from October 10 to 28 in online and offline formats. Participants will be able to assess their level of digital skills and get acquainted with IT services and products available in their regions. The campaign is organized by RAEC, with the co-organization of ROSTIT and the People's Front. This year, the testing will be supported by the Ministry of Digital Development and the Moscow Department of Information Technologies.

Over 415,000 Russians participated in the IT Dictation on Programmer's Day. The regions with the highest average score were the Luhansk People's Republic, the Republic of Ingushetia, the Altai Republic, the Penza and Pskov regions. In the State Duma, it was stated that it is necessary for Russians to learn cyber literacy.
