This introductory video centers on language teachers but it could easily be applied to any educator.  Human connection is a theme and point that is continuously reinforced.  Connection with educators around the world is paramount in bringing the world to our students.

Digital Literacy in the Primary Classroom

Digital Literacy in the Primary Classroom | Literacy -LLN not to mention digital literacy in Training and assessment | Scoop.it

Kevin McLaughlin writes a great post sharing: What is Digital Literacy

 

Futurelab, an organisation ‘committed to developing creative and innovative approaches to education, teaching and learning’, gives the following definition in its publication Digital Literacy across the curriculum:

 

To be digitally literate is to have access to a broad range of practices and cultural resources that you are able to apply to digital tools. It is the ability to make and share meaning in different modes and formats; to create, collaborate and communicate effectively and to understand how and when digital technologies can best be used to support these processes.
