Digital Literacy
What do we know/challenges?
1. Every student’s starting point is is unique and thus their journey will be
different so strategies to support this must reflect this diversity;
2. Academic staff are committed to enhancing student opportunities yet
may not have the confidence to do so;
3. Perhaps too much effort is being focused on the curriculum at the expense
of other aspects of the students’ experience, i.e what happens in non-
contact time?
4. To embed DL requires a multi approach linking into as many institutional
strategies and processes as possible. What are the best strategies that
could act as engines for change, i.e. personal tutoring?
5. The ability for students to self-evaluate is essential but how do they use
this information to help them learn, and how do we use it, if it is shared
with us, as learning designers?
6. Employers talk a different language to us – how to communicate what
they need into the curriculum/co-curriculum
