Overview

Digital literacy is vital to adult learners’ lives, education, and employment, as well as to staff in their work with students. In this workshop, you will explore one of ACLS’ suggested frameworks, the Maryland Digital Literacy Framework and its accompanying Instructor Implementation Guide, to begin building an action plan for implementing core competencies for yourself and with your students.  

About this PD:

Description

This workshop will be facilitated by Jamie Harris, who co-authored the Maryland Digital Literacy Framework. She will describe the structure of the Framework and how you can use it to inform planning and instruction. She will also explain how you can use the readily available, practical examples in the Instructors’ Guide for integrating digital literacy instruction in your classroom.

We will provide opportunities for you to share with colleagues and encourage you to come to the webinar with practices you recommend and questions you may have.
