Seminar description:

In order for students to meaningfully engage in technology-enhanced educational practices, they need to be digitally literate. At the same time, the world out there needs higher education graduates who can successfully participate in the technology driven workplace environment. That is, graduates who can: find and evaluate information; understand and use digital tools to collaborate, and solve real-life problems; and create and effectively share information and knowledge. Due to these needs, digital literacies have become part of the essential graduate attributes.

Bearing in mind that disciplines may embrace different digital literacy practices, the purpose of this session is to: 1) provide an overview  on digital literacies in higher education, 2) showcase case studies and 3) introduce frameworks that academics could use for embedding digital literacies into the curriculum of their respective courses.
