DE Week 2023 Keynote- Justin Hodgson

Empowering Faculty and Students through Digital Literacy: Lowering Barriers to Success- This talk will focus on the transformative impact of integrating digital literacy into the curriculum. It will highlight how bringing digital literacy, digital creativity, and digital learning into our classrooms can lower barriers to student success by empowering both faculty and students in new ways, by helping to bridge the digital divide, by opening greater access to course content and practices, and by providing new avenues for engagement. It will feature example approaches and inspiring student project and provide a few entry points and (re)orientations: from low-stakes in-class activities to embracing failure pedagogy to innovative course (re)design.
