Introduction: digital literacy is essential in today's society to acquire skills that allow individuals to navigate and be autonomous in digital environments. This documentary research developed a five-step selective attention technique (locate, explore, select, analyze, and learn) to optimize digital learning through metacognition and learning styles. Methodology: a literature review was conducted on digital literacy, meaningful learning, computer science, computing, Bloom's taxonomy, neuroscience, and learning styles, using qualitative techniques to identify patterns. Results: the results are illustrated in nine figures that theoretically relate the technique to various disciplines, explaining how it can improve digital skills in adults and promote adaptive digital literacy. Discussion: the technique integrates with the DigComp 2.2 framework and promotes understanding and adaptation to technological change. Although no quantitative data were obtained, the research provides a theoretical basis for future investigations. Conclusions: personalizing training programs according to learning styles and incorporating metacognitive strategies can enhance technological autonomy, facilitating adaptation to changes in software and digital tools. This suggests significant potential for improving adults' understanding and adaptation in the digital society.
