Digital Literacy

Welcome!

The LVUSD Digital Literacy site has been designed to assist teachers in delivering digital literacy lessons to their students.  

Most of the lesson material comes from Common Sense Media, which can be accessed using your LVUSD Google credentials. Teachers may supplement or substitute resources.

Lesson Delivery

Teachers should deliver digital literacy lessons to their students during the indicated time frame. The District has provided all needed materials on this website; however, teachers are free to supplement/substitute resources as long as students meet the lesson objective.
