- 8. “DIGITAL LITERACY DEFINES THOSE CAPABILITIES which fit an individual for living, learning and working in a digital society” JISC, 2009
- 9. Photo credit: Rob Shenk via photopin cc What’s wrong with VLE’s? ! Don’t encourage learners to take responsibility for their own learning, tools or digital literacy Outdated view of teaching as “push” Teacher at the centre not the student or the network Not integrated with tools & environments for education Closed to networked learning Lock you in

- 19. CHALLENGES?
- 20. POLICY & SECURITY Most of the time people only want access to the internet (including University intranet sites) When accessing university systems we need a password challenge and single sign on Already in place: Acceptable use; Virus protection Password protection of devices Problem is they are not enforceable - its a social thing!
- 21. ADDRESSING SECURITY CONCERNS photo credit: JohnGoode via photopin cc Require users to register every device Utilise two-factor authentication Provide anti-virus/malware software Scanning devices Educating students and staff Verifiying users’ understanding Locking down core network Relying on virtualisation and internal cloud CDWG, Bring Your own Device, “Adapting the Flood of Personal mobile computing accessing campus networks”
- 22. Some issues Universities must decide What devices will we support? How will we support them? Who will pay for software/apps? Access to University systems? If the Uni supplies it, who owns it (eg Apple ID’s?) Letting go of control but still ensuring reliable and secure systems - tricky balance
- 23. Well supported BYOD environment aligned to university strategies offers benefits: Enables technology rich classrooms Inititates new ways of learning Increases student engagement
- 24. Thank you Develop digital literacies for staff and students Have clear, flexible policies and strategy in place Provide learning experiences that encourage DL Ensure students have a ‘real world’ learning environment Summary:
