Digital literacy has become one of the major issues facing educators in this early part of the 21st century. The need to develop students and teachers digital literacies has become increasingly accepted as fact and yet most teachers' and students' understanding of what exactly constitutes a digital literacy still seems to remain quite vague. Even more vague seems to be teachers' understanding of how precisely we go about developing those literacies. Via Nik Peachey

The exposure to this 'social quizzing' app was alone worth the read. You won't be surprised to find out what is the #1 response, and the final response is unintentionally funny to me - it received 0 votes.

Over the last 10 years, technology has been moving quickly and evolving more and more in our modern society. It might pass you by if you think or blink. That is how quickly the world is changing among us. Either you keep up with it, or you will fall behind. Today's technology is different from that used by my parents and generations before us. My generation, Generation Z, did not go through many of the prior generations' hardships, such as having to page someone on the phone or learning to use a typewriter. Some of the more popular composition talents are narrating, describing, analyzing, comparing and contrasting, and evaluating; these particular aptitudes develop over the course of many hours in school and learning how to write. Learning how to think critically and effectively while presenting a story in a digital format may be difficult, which is a challenge in terms of digital writing talents. One or two examples of essential skills are knowing the principles of multiple platforms, including Excel, PowerPoint, Microsoft, and programming. In the digital age, developing one's creative side is just as crucial as developing analytical skills. Although verbal communication can be difficult in person, it is essential for digital composition in the modern era to be able to send emails, texts, and other sorts of messages. I have grown so much since I was a kid from using technology. There are both good and bad factors when it comes to how you use it. I find it to be easier to have a negative life. It is a tool in place that helps many people today. Today, digital technologies like data pooling and AI are employed for everyday tasks like traffic navigation and bill payment, as well as tracking and diagnosing problems in agriculture, health, and the environment. They can be used to protect and exercise human rights, but they can also be abused, such as when they are used to track our whereabouts, purchases, communications, and actions. The instruments to harvest and exploit data for financial and other goals are becoming more and more available to governments and enterprises.

The new digital education environment will look and function very differently. In addition to classroom teaching, staff will develop new ways of teaching that embrace digital education, and ‘bring your own device’ learning models will be integrated into the learning environment. Strong leadership in schools will be needed to support this new environment, to increase teacher capacity and to support the uptake of digital education in schools. Via Nik Peachey

I have just read an interesting report from the Digital Education Advisory Group on education in Australia. I agree with the author of this article, 21st century education consists of computers and all the advanced technologies to help children to learn in a more efficient way. As technology is upgrading and becoming more advanced, so are the teachers. Teachers that teach in the 21st century education system have developed a more effecient and more interesting way to teach the children today. I believe that in the future the education system will once again change and the children of the future will learn much more efficiently. This upgrade in the education will have a positive influence on the children as they benefit from it, they will learn faster and understand what they are taught better. Although there is a big upgrade in the technology and education systems today, it is not truly fool proof. There will always be children who might not understand what is going on in the classroom as the attention span of children is not long no matter the upgrade in technology.
