Challenge:
KMHS Campus Info & Digital Literacy resources:
Common Sense Media, ISTE, & Checkology News Literacy Project
These resources have been curated by the LITS (Library Information Technology Specialists) team.
Recommendations:
Integrate these lessons into content areas most appropriate. For example: Info Literacy could be taught in an English class since all students take English. News & Media Literacy could be taught in Social Studies. All teachers should pick lessons as they apply in their classes.
Roll out lessons in a smaller group to allow for important student discussions. The design is to teach these at meaningful intervals throughout the school year.
From DPI Safeguarding children online stands as a fundamental objective for school districts, aligning with the Wisconsin Digital Learning Plan and the Wisconsin Information and Technology Literacy Standards. In today's world, technology is an integral part of students' lives and it is essential for all of us to ensure their secure and responsible handling of digital assets.
