FLO MicroCourse: An Introduction to the B.C. Digital Literacy Framework

The B.C. Digital Literacy Framework is part of the B.C. Digital Learning Strategy developed by the Digital Learning Advisory Committee, a collaboration between the Ministry of Post-Secondary Education and Future Skills and the post-secondary system. The B.C. Digital Literacy Framework was developed to enhance digital literacy knowledge, skills, and abilities across post-secondary communities. 

The framework includes eight thematic competencies within digital literacy: ethical and legal, technology, information literacy, digital scholarship, communication and collaboration, creation and curation, digital well-being, and community-based learning. 

This one-week Facilitating Learning Online (FLO) MicroCourse is designed for post-secondary instructors, trainers, and teachers who want to explore the B.C. Digital Literacy Framework and integrate it into their educational practices. The course aims to generate awareness about the framework and empower educators to enhance digital literacy skills in their students. You will engage with self-paced, asynchronous content supplemented by two one-hour synchronous sessions with your facilitator, Taruna Goel.

These two optional synchronous sessions will be recorded:

• Tuesday, March 5, 2024 from 10:00 to 11:00 AM Pacific Time
  
• Thursday, March 7, 2024 from 10:00 to 11:00 AM Pacific Time

You are encouraged to block off five to eight hours for learning during this one-week course.
