6. Promote digital literacy/fluency and cyber-safety practices including information gathering and communication, analysis of information, judicious communication, and critical analysis.  

I would emphasize critical thinking. Digital fluency is fine, but misinformation can come through many media, and perhaps the bigger issue, more valuable to general interactions between humans, is how to think critically - how to evaluate information, sourcing, and logical structure, including logical fallacies.

To me, this is a critical point where scientific habits of thought can help improve the quality of societal discourse.
