Digital literacy is more than just using devices—it means understanding how to find, evaluate, and create information online.
Digital literacy is just one part of Digital Design. The digital teaching & learning department is committed to expanding our knowledge and expertise regarding digital access, digital design, and digital equity to support educators in facilitating the effective use of technology to enhance student learning. Every student deserves the tools and skills to fully participate in our digital world. As we support our Portrait of a Graduate with not only digital tools, but also digital skills, we’re committed to providing both the access and the know-how students need to thrive.
