Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path

Are you looking to build students’ digital literacy skills to better prepare them for success in today’s digital world?

Need a few ideas? We invited educators in our Renaissance Royals™ community to share examples of favorite assignments, projects, or activities they use to help students of all ages build digital literacy skills.

Is there an app for that? A review of mobile apps for information literacy classes

When we look around our libraries, students are routinely using their phones, tablets, and laptops as the basic tools for their research, and they seem to be online more often than not. When we talk about meeting students “where they are,” we are typically referring to teaching to a student’s skill-level. We propose expanding that to meeting them where they reside in the
digital landscape, and, increasingly, that involves an app-based environment on a personal device.
