The Digital Literacy Training Program for Canadian Educators
Category | Courses | Workshops
In addressing the discrepancy between the perceived importance of digital literacy skills among teachers and their integration into Canadian classrooms, MediaSmarts aims to bridge the gap. Their research indicates that teachers value teaching students skills like authenticating information, managing privacy, addressing cyberbullying, and staying safe online. However, the implementation of these skills in Canadian classrooms appears limited. To address this, MediaSmarts offers resources designed to support teachers in seamlessly incorporating digital literacy into their teaching practice. The goal is to assist educators in developing tailored digital literacy lessons and activities that cater to the specific needs of their students.
