Background and timeline

TRLP/TEL report on Digital Literacy, Jisc DDL programme: still a lack of coherence in strategy, and confidence in practice

» 2014 more strategic approach: UK Govt Digital Inclusion Strategy, FELTAG; UCISA DC survey; QAA theme

» 2015: ‘staff digital capability’ atop priority for Jisc stakeholders

» 2016: DC Framework…» 2017: NMC Horizon Report;

What have we learned (1)?>Different drivers in different sectors: different change cultures

and different levels of resource>Organisations need a mix of specialist skills (role-specific,

some new roles) and a higher baseline of generic skills across all roles

>Time and resource constraints; very high levels of restructuring and role change

>Motivate and celebrate vs mandate and integrate>Embedded vs special initiatives – ‘embedded’ can be

premature>A whole-organisation agenda: ‘not just the same organisation

with more skilled people in it’ (Lincoln)

What have we learned (2)?>Shared frameworks as conversation starters>Staff and/or students may be the early priority but

usually the aspiration is across-the-board>Successful approaches depend on established culture,

rules, roles and divisions of labour>Engage different teams; TEL, library/LR or ed/staff

development often lead>Timeliness, and link with other agendas: ‘We felt that if

we went through all the committees we would miss the moment, and we wanted to hit… the time when people were talking about it. (Project Lead, Open University)

What have we learned (3)?

02/05/2023


‘I think it’s always with us because innovation is always with us. It’s to do with confidence. You’ll always get some people more confident in engaging with new technology than others. And there is always going to be some requirement because the technology will change, and people will continue to need support to engage confidently with innovation.’ (Principal Lecturer, Brighton)‘In my view digital capability is a key skill for the current and future of our young people. It is at the heart of transformation of learning and enables learners to maximise their success not only with their studies but throughout their life and work in the future.’ (CEO & Principal, EFC)

technologies for learning, alone and with others, and developing flexible strategies in response to situational

needs. They are literate and critically aware users of digital resources.

skillsLearners are developing technical skills and using them in a

variety of learning contexts; increasing in confidence and expertise. Information skills and digital literacies are emerging

through guidance and practice.

creative appropriationLearners are creating their own learning

environments and social contexts. They are active participants in communities of knowledge building

and sharing.

conceptions of learning with technology Social and

emotional resources

functional accessLearners have access to relevant technologies, resources and services. Barriers to access such as cost and disability are actively addressed. Learners are not barred from accessing social and personal technologies without good reason. Technical support and reliable networks are available.
