12. Responsibility Locus
There was an
attitude among
some that
suggested they felt
no responsibility for
their own digital
literacy
"We have a
responsibility for
what we do, but
also for what we
don't do."
13. The workplace environment
Transferability
There exists a block
in ability to
transfer skills from
one discipline to
another
...or from application
to application
14. "Digital literacy defines those capabilities
which fit an individual for living, learning and
working in a digital society" JISC
15. Horizon Report NZ 2011
Digital literacy is a key skill in every discipline
and profession
Most academics are not using new and
compelling technologies for learning &
teaching, nor for their own research
The abundance of resources & relationships
easily accessible via the Internet challenges us
to revisit our roles as educators
