Overview

This group is for staff whose work includes digital skill-building support for students and teachers, including (but definitely not limited to) technology specialists, digital navigators, and instructors. 

Do you want to hear from colleagues on what they have been doing at their programs and share what you have been doing at yours? Do you have ideas for supporting staff or students that you would like feedback on? In these meetings, you are invited to share digital literacy tools, resources, and strategies that you have found to be effective in your work at your program. You will hear from colleagues about their practices. You are also welcome to ask fellow technology coordinators your questions. 

This is a great way to strengthen your practice and find some new ideas for supporting students and colleagues around digital skills instruction. We will decide on topics as a group so that we address current needs and interests.

For half of this meeting, Gabriel Brum, Digital Literacy Instructor at the Immigrant Learning Center, will explain their successful model for the way he provides push-in support in classes by teaching several lessons each quarter and by assisting teachers, as well as by having drop-in office hours and 1:1 support for students.
