Digital Literacy, Internet Safety, and Social Media

Digital Literacy, Internet Safety, and Social Media

Erasmus+ course summary
Inadequate digital literacy can harness the safety of students, decrease their abilities to build skills online, and diminish their employability. Needless to say that students’ mental health is at risk with a lack of skills in managing cyberbullying, critical distance towards data privacy and spotting fake news. This course offers teachers engaging activities and learning materials to increase the digital literacy of their students. To promote a holistic view of digital literacy, this course also puts attention to school culture, work with parents and mental health topics.
​"The biggest part of our digital transformation is changing the way we think." - Simeon Preston

Course Content

Full Programme

OBJECTIVES
By the end of the course teachers understand the importance of holistic work in increasing the digital literacy of students. They are able to practice problem and project-based learning activities on digital literacy with their students, promote a safe digital culture within their school, and inform parents about digital literacy as well. Based on the course content teachers are able to design their own digital literacy activities and find appropriate educational resources.
METHODOLOGY
Besides activities with students a holistic approach to digital literacy encompasses cultivating a safety culture in schools, working with parents, and mental health topics. The course addresses all those angles with hands-on problem-based teaching activities. During the course teachers experience a demonstration of digital literacy cases, peer learning, collaboration, problem-based learning, and digital literacy project examples.
