About this module

What is your role in promoting digital literacy skills with your students? Digital literacy has become increasingly significant in Higher Education as we prepare our students for the future workforce. As educators, are we fully preparing our students to use technologies to access information, be creative and innovative, solve problems, communicate, participate, learn and support others in digital spaces? This module invites you to consult your students about the answers to these questions and to take a collaborative approach to supporting them with their digital learning needs. Once you have defined the areas you would like to focus on, you will design a digital literacy challenge to put your students’ digital skills and capabilities to the test.
