As the future teaching workforce, enhancing the digital literacy of pre-service teachers is not only a practical necessity to adapt to the development of digital education but also a crucial foundation for reforming the teaching workforce and achieving personalized teaching. Currently, the cultivation of pre-service teachers’ digital literacy faces multiple challenges, including constraints posed by their academic backgrounds, a fragmented curriculum system, and a lack of collaborative mechanisms. Therefore, this paper proposes that effective enhancement of pre-service teachers’ digital literacy can be achieved through pathways such as forming specialized digital literacy teaching teams, constructing a systematic digital literacy curriculum system, and establishing multi-stakeholder collaboration mechanisms for digital literacy education. This will lay a solid foundation for high-quality development in future education.</abstract><keywords/></article-meta></front><body/><back><ref-list><ref id="B1" content-type="article"><label>1</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Sepulveda A, 2020, The Digital Transformation of Education: Connecting Schools, Empowering Learners.</p><pub-id pub-id-type="doi"/></element-citation></ref><ref id="B2" content-type="article"><label>2</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Gilster P, 1997, Digital Literacy, Wiley Computer Pub, New York, 145.</p><pub-id pub-id-type="doi"/></element-citation></ref><ref id="B3" content-type="article"><label>3</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Wu L, 2017, Digital Literacy Education for Employment: A Study on “The 2017 Digital Literacy Impact Study: NMC Horizon Project Strategic Brief.” Library Development, 2017: 14.</p><pub-id pub-id-type="doi"/></element-citation></ref><ref id="B4" content-type="article"><label>4</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Xiao J, 2006, Digital Literacy.
