What Can digital features Teach us?
In this lesson we teach learners to recognize the many digital features they encounter when working online. Pushing deeper we engage them to understand that all digital features have a purpose; knowing the purpose of each feature helps learners understand the many different ways media communicates information. When we teach students to access all the digital features available to them we multiply the number of entry points for thinking--text, images, video and more all become relevant in building understanding.
