The document discusses the impact of technology on learning and teaching. It references several theorists who emphasize the importance of critical thinking, building trust and understanding between teachers and students, and developing cultural capital to take advantage of new technologies. While students may be comfortable with devices, they may not have the digital literacy needed to fully benefit. The role of educational institutions is to help students develop these new literacies so they can thrive in a digital society. It also provides an example of curriculum innovation at the University of Southampton.

10. Paulo Freire
“Education must begin with the solution of
the teacher-student contradiction, by
reconciling the poles of the contradiction so
that both are simultaneously teachers and
students ..”
“An educator’s effort must coincide
with those of the students to engage in
critical thinking and the quest for
mutual humanisation.”

11. Myles Horton,
The long Haul
“Any decent society has to be
built on trust and love and the
intelligent use of information
and feelings. Education involves
being able to practice those
things as you struggle to build a
decent society...”

12. Septima Clark

13. We take for granted that students
are digital literate…

14. Are they always?

15. Digital
visitors
vs
Digital
Residents?

16. Social and Cultural Capital
play a major role!

17. “To possess the machines, [they]
only need economic capital; to
appropriate them and use them in
accordance with their specific
purpose [they] must have access
to embodied cultural capital,
either in person or by proxy”
Pierre Bourdieu

18. What role do we (and institutions) play in
‘developing’ that cultural capital

19. What new literacies?

20. Digital literacies defines those who exhibit a critical
understanding and capability for living, learning, and
working in the digital society. Kerrigan and Walker, 2013
