Last week I gave a webinar through UCI on transitioning from teaching to instructional design. I shared my story of moving from teaching to instructional design as well as tips for finding a job.

The Seven Pillars of Information Literacy at the Transition to University | Library Intelligencer

This blog is to provide information to University of Melbourne Library staff

 

“My original intention was to develop a ‘Transition to University’ lens for the SCONUL 7 Pillars of Information Literacy but I quickly realised that I wasn’t going to be able to put together something that would apply for students across all subject areas and different types of course. I therefore narrowed my scope to the information skills of new students of English within the university for which I work.” Niamh Tumelty

As universities move classes online, let’s not forget the digital divide

As universities move classes online, let’s not forget the digital divide | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

The COVID-19 pandemic reminds us that in times of turmoil, decisions made for the greater good can have collateral impacts. It’s becoming evident that efforts to contain the virus and limit social distancing are increasing precarity for some people, especially those already in socio-economically disadvantaged positions. Universities are not immune to these collateral impacts, and last week’s decision by most Canadian universities to finish the current term by moving pedagogical components online is one of those times when a small segment of students will be neglected in a move meant to benefit all of them.

 

The decision is a show of resilience and solidarity by our higher education institutions. But the problem is the digital divide among students. Even in our great cosmopolitan country, not everyone has equal access to the web and all its resources. This digital divide was on the radar a few years ago, with a push to bring broadband to remote constituencies. But less attention has been devoted to the divide in urban settings, and especially within the hubs of knowledge that are universities.
