Welcome to your final assignment in which you draw on the resources you created during this course. Remember the challenge we set you at the start of the course? You are now about to present your suggested solution.
What to do
Apply your understanding of digital literacies as a whole and develop a school-wide approach for educating digital citizens.
You may use any format to present this assignment but the final assignment file you submit must be less than 8Mb in size. Your submission must provide the evidence required to fully assess the work (see the rubric below).
These are the elements of the assignment you must include:
- Your own clear definitions of the scope and skills used in digital literacy, media literacy, information literacy and digital citizenship. Hint: you could try infographics or other visual media.
- Clear recommendations to the school on why a programme for education in a digital society should be adopted.
- A curriculum which makes recommendations about:
- What will be taught
- In what grade/subject? By whom?
- How? When?
- Include recommendations for resources (with links to the resources), but do not create any resources.
