The 22 Digital Skills Every 21st Century Teacher Must Have| Educational Technology and Mobile Learning | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

One of the most popular articles I have written in this blog was about the 33 Digital Skills Every 21st Teacher should Have. This post has been used in several digital literacy courses in some universities in the States and also here in Canada, I also got it published in a couple of printed journals . Now that one year has elapsed since its first seeing the light I decided to revisit it again but this time adding more updates and organizing its content in a better and easy navigable way.

Impact of technology on the libraries of tomorrow | UKSG eNews

Five software tools to help online students avoid distractions

Five software tools to help online students avoid distractions | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
An interesting article on Schools.com.

 

Whether it comes from Facebook, Twitter, Google, Instagram or Reddit, distractions abound online.

This is especially true for online students, who do much of their work on the Internet. How do you resist the urge to check social media when your phone is blowing up with notifications? How do you not check that email, not Google a question that just came to you, or not see if your friend read that important message you sent her on Facebook? If you can't find the willpower, there's another way.

Here are five software tools to help online students stay disciplined and avoid distractions.
