Digital and Media Literacy: A Plan of Action | KnightComm - 1 views

  • Digital literacy means learning how to work the information and communication technologies in a networked environment, as well as understanding the social, cultural and ethical issues that go along with the use of these technologies.
  •  
    It sounds important - haven't read it yet, but it isn't new (2010) " Digital literacy means learning how to work the information and communication technologies in a networked environment, as well as understanding the social, cultural and ethical issues that go along with the use of these technologies. "Full participation in contemporary culture requires not just consuming messages, but also creating and sharing them," writes Hobbs. "To fulfill the promise of digital citizenship, Americans must acquire multimedia communication skills and know how to use these skills to engage in the civic life of their communities.""

UKPSF and the Digital University / Home - 0 views

  •  
    "The initial development and accreditation, and to an increasing extent also the continuing professional development, of those who teach in UK higher education are undertaken with explicit reference to the UK Professional Standards Framework (UKPSF). The UKPSF is designed to remain in use for many years between revisions. It is also designed to work across the full range of higher education institutions and provision. It therefore properly avoids getting into the levels of detail that those designing and running particular post-graduate certificates in teaching and learning in higher education (PGCertHE) courses and CPD processes must address.   One major and fast-changing factor affecting higher education (along with the rest of the world) is the use of digital technologies. How are PGCertHEs adapting to digital technologies, in their design and operation and in the educational practices for which the PGCertHEs are preparing staff? This guide offers answers and links, including analysis of sources and case studies, from professional associations concerned with the development of teaching and learning in higher education. "

Digital Competence in Practice:  An Analysis of Frameworks - 0 views

  •  
    Digital Competence has been acknowledged as one of the 8 key competences for Lifelong Learning by the European Union. Digital Competence can be broadly defined as the confident, critical and creative use of ICT to achieve goals related to work, employability, learning, leisure, inclusion and/or participation in society. Digital Competence is a transversal key competence which enables acquiring other key competences (e.g. language, mathematics, learning to learn, cultural awareness). It is related to many of the so-called 21st Century skills which should be acquired by all citizens, to ensure their active participation in society and the economy.

Digital Literacy - delivering the agenda within colleges and universities - 1 views

  •  
    "In the sixth episode of our online radio programmes - JISC On Air - we are exploring how universities and colleges can help teaching staff, researchers, support and administrative staff to develop their digital literacies - those capabilities which prepare an individual for living, learning and working in a digital society. In part two of the show, we will be looking at how digital literacy underpins the academic success and employability of students. The show highlights how colleges and universities are developing holistic approaches and strategies for supporting the development of these skills and capabilities."

Exeter CASCADE - Digital Literacies - 2 views

  •  
    CASCADE is designed to focus on the digital literacy of researchers - building on the University's strengths in research-led teaching. It also incorporates the concept of 'students as change agents', for which we  have national acclaim for our work involving undergraduate students in the design and delivery of the curriculum, and we intend to build on our experience of engaging Postgraduate Research students to cascade skills to undergraduates. How it will workA purpose-designed Exeter Digital Literacy Framework will underpin the project, and help us in refining our approaches, specifically with regard to digital literacy skills. A number of research-rich online and face to face activities will be developed and piloted in our five Colleges.
