You can integrate digital skills into daily life. If you can shop online, you can teach online. You have a balanced attitude. Digital isn’t everything. You’re a teacher, not a techie. You’re open to using and trying new stuff. You can find digital tools, so can your kids. What matters is if they work. You’re a digital communicator. You can use email and social media with ease. You know the difference between things like a tweet and a DM. You know how to do a digital assessment. You’re a sound judge of the quality of information, apps, and tools. You understand and respect privacy. You treat personal data with the respect it deserves. You’re a digital citizen. You know how to behave online appropriately, legally, and in socially responsible ways. And you’ll pass it on to your pupils.
