[Air-L] Help in syllabus about Digital Literacy for Teaching

Mon Sep 30 06:38:46 PDT 2019

Hello Nordania

GAPMIL at UNESCO may be of help
They have a media and information literacy roundtable that includes digital literacy

And some tools for teachers

I would imaging perusing what they have by way of resources could be of help

Here’s a link
http://www.unesco.org/new/en/communication-and-information/media-development/media-literacy/mil-curriculum-for-teachers/documents/

A quick look at a generic adult DL course shows it covers

Introduction to information and digital literacy: How information literacy supports learners and daily life; Information Literacy models and tools; Types and sources of information/the information cycle; Information and digital literacy skills and concepts;

Theoretical foundations: Personal and social epistemology, testimony, credibility and persuasion. Cognition and cognitive biases.

Using Information literacy skills: Keywords and search strategies; Evaluating information and websites; Reading and recording, organising, using and presenting information; the reflective practitioner.

Supporting information literacy in others:Supporting students, researchers, generalist and specialist library users; Mobile information literacy.

Digital literacy: Use of digital tools to undertake academic research, writing and critical thinking; digital professionalism; the use of specialist digital tools and data sets; communicating ideas effectively in a range of media; collaborating in virtual networks; using digital technologies to support reflection and PDP; managing digital reputation and showcasing achievements.

Teaching information and digital literacy skills:Learning theories and factors affecting learning; Information/digital literacy programmes; Teaching methods for information literacy; Accessibility and inclusiveness; Presentation skills for information literacy teachers; Embedding information literacy; Assessing information literacy.

Tools and collaboration: Sources of information and collaboration; Developing and using Learning Objects; Information and creative Commons; Using and sharing Open Educational Resources (OERS); Using Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs); Advocacy.

The international context: Education and global development; information literacy around the world.

I think for teachers it may need to include learning points to filter to students

So it may for example include

Learning Outcomes

●     Understand and practice the elements of digital citizenship and internet safety

●     Navigate a learning management system simulating an online course

●     Collaborate and communicate a message using various digital tools

●     Use web tools to organize information

●     Conduct online research and assess the credibility of online information

●     Investigate career choices and identify possible pathways to reach career/future goals

●     Create and publish work for a global audience

Units Covered

1.      How to Be an Online Learner

2.      Digital Citizenship

3.      College & Career Readiness

4.      Cloud Computing

5.      Computer Science & Coding

Hope that helps

Dear Members,

I will be teaching this course for undergraduate at my university next
semester. It would be great if anyone has experiences teaching this course
and has a structured teaching programme for this. Anyway, any sharing of
materials, resources, thoughts are welcome!

Thank you in advance.
