You are invited to attend a workshop on Digital Literacies on Monday 6th September at the East Midlands Conference Centre as an ALT-C pre-conference workshop.
The workshop is designed for everyone with a research and/or development interest in digital literacies, and those whose roles are changing to accommodate a ‘digital literacies’ agenda. Participants will:
*Explore materials from the LLiDA project, designed to support curriculum and institutional development around a digital literacies agenda
*Share changing practices and roles as ‘digital literacy’ becomes a key area of policy and curriculum
*Learn from the institutional case studies that have been collated by Rhona Sharpe and her team as part of the Supporting Learners in a Digital Age (SLIDA) project
*Hear about the TLRP/TEL projects that are researching areas associated with digital literacy
FACILITATORS: Helen Beetham (JISC Learning Literacies in a Digital Age project), Rhona Sharpe (Oxford Brookes University), Fred Garnet (representing TLRP/TEL)
TIMING: from 2pm until 4.30pm
VENUE: http://www.nottinghamconferences.co.uk/how-to-find-us/
BOOKING: please email helen.beetham@googlemail.com or fred.garnett@gmail.com with your name and confirmation that you will attend.
ADDITIONAL INFO: Please don’t confuse this with the symposium on digital literacies which is taking place as part of the ALT-C programme on the following day. However, if you are planning to attend both, we aim to ensure a coherent experience across both events!
