In the era of artificial intelligence with rapid digital advancements, integrating digital literacy training into higher education has become both essential and challenging. As educational institutions respond to this demand, digital tools aligned with the contemporary landscape gain prominence also in language teaching and learning. In line with this digital transformation, this study examines two key aspects: students’ perceptions of digital literacy training in English education or language majors and potential variations in their awareness. Analyzing surveys from 159 students illuminates their understanding of digital literacy, its importance for future careers, and the challenges of acquiring digital skills in the current educational context. Our findings indicate that students acknowledge both the advantages and challenges of acquiring digital literacy skills in the present educational context. Furthermore, English education majors demonstrate a heightened awareness of the role of digital literacy in enhancing their pedagogical strategies. This study emphasizes the need for tailored digital education programs, reinforcing the importance of robust digital literacy training and preparing future language educators with essential digital competencies.
