Lesson 6: DEVELOPING BASIC DIGITAL SKILLS


SUMMARY:           


          As teachers adjust their teaching to effectively match the new digital world of ICT, they must be clear on what basic knowledge, skills and values ( literacy ) need to develop by digital learners. These basic literacy will not replace the 3Rs, but they will complemented by six essential skills to equip students for success in the millennial world. Rather call them literacy skills these are better referred to fluency skills. These are solution fluency, information fluency, collaboration fluency, media fluency, creativity fluency, and digital ethics. In Bloom’s Taxonomy of Thinking Skills can serve as a general framework of skills, a new era of creativity in the digital world has led to introducing a kind of framework that requires information processing, idea creation and real-world problem-solving skills.


REFLECTION:


          Developing basic digital skills allow us how to use properly different capabilities of the computer and apply these when we will be teaching in the future. We will be able to impart this to our students, teach them how to gather useful information using the Internet, and use this information properly in finding solutions on the problems they encounter at the classroom setting, the school, and in the outside world.
