Abstract:
Digital and information literacy skills are often hidden within the curriculum - a competency we expect students to develop, but one that we don’t explicitly make part of our courses. It is a dangerous assumption that tertiary learners today are already digitally literate and are able to evaluate information effectively. Access to quality devices, connectivity and information is not a given - it’s a privilege many are still denied. We want to ensure our students are becoming discerning, ethical users and creators of information. How do we support students to become information literate, lifelong learners?
