What does it take to become a digitally agile scholar? This manual guides academics in navigating today's digital landscape. It emphasizes three key domains of digital agility: engaging in research, education, and community service; mobilizing digital skills at various levels; and fulfilling multiple roles, both independently and collaboratively. After an introduction outlining the foundational framework, the chapters delve into various roles and skills essential for evolving as a digital scholar. These include the author, who produces specialized texts for peers; the storyteller, who creates accessible narratives through blogs or podcasts; the creator, who employs graphics, audio, and video to engage audiences; the integrator, who curates multimedia artifacts for dissemination via websites and webinars; and the networker, who fosters interaction through social media and online communities. The concluding chapters present a blueprint for the future digital scholar as a professional learner and change agent, open to innovation. Drawing from the author's extensive experience, this work provides insight, inspiration, and practical advice, equipping a diverse readership with the skills and mindset needed to navigate the evolving digital age and enhance their academic profiles.
