Abstract

This research aims to determine how digital literacy influences the academic performance of university-level students in District Lahore , Punjab, Pakistan. It is a descriptive research where a survey was carried out in public sector universities to collect the responses of 120 students from District Lahore.

Female students with digital skills outperformed male students with a similar digital literacy level. This study revealed, among other things, that all university-level students should be taught how to utilize library computers to locate reliable and authentic information for their research work.
