Welcome to a  short training module on digital competence frameworks for instructors. This training module aims to help instructors working in post-secondary settings to identify and compare features of four popular digital competence frameworks: T-PACK, UNESCO's ICT framework, JISC's Digital Capabilities frameworks, and the European Commission's DigCompEdu framework. A fifth digital competence framework, Flexicomp, is also described in this module- this framework was developed in partnership with instructors and learners in four European countries, and is aimed specifically at instructors working in the  VET sector, and-or with vulnerable learners. 

This Digital Dexterity Self-assessment Quiz will help you identify your strengths in specific digital skills, and identify the ones that might need a brush up. The quiz will assess your skills with different aspects of digital dexterity and point you towards resources to deepen your knowledge and understanding.

For most of human history, recording a star meant describing it with words or drawing a picture. The 19th-century invention of photography changed that—only to be revolutionized by digital imaging. This Moveable Museum article, available as a six-page printable PDF file, takes a look at the technology of digital imaging. It discusses how digital images are pictures stored as numbers and explains how computer manipulation can enhance images and reduce distortion. Some suggested resources are provided for further research.

The information revolution of the 21st century is as significant and transformative as the industrial revolution of the 19th century. In this unit, students – and by proxy their families – will learn about the challenges of our current information landscape and how to navigate them. This unit is split into four modules. These modules can be done sequentially or stand on their own, depending on students’ needs and teachers’ timeframes. In this module (1 of 4), students analyze their own use of online social media platforms and learn how filter bubbles and confirmation bias shape the content of their media environment. 

In this lesson, students will explore how technology can be a useful tool for active citizenship.
