Digital Literacy

Next week, information technology class will be learning about digital literacy.  Digital literacy is about being savvy on the web.  We will talk about how to tell if web pages are valid sites for research, cyber bullying, social media, online safety (being safe with your identity), and digital footprints.  Each day we will be learning about a new topic and will have various activities that will reinforce our learning targets.  When we complete the unit, students will create a product that promotes awareness for all the areas of digital literacy that we learn about.

One of the tools we will learn about early on is Google Scholar.  Below is a link to a short overview and tutorial to get you started with a great resource that Google offers.
