iPad for Digital Literacy and Social Networking
School should rethink their approach to building digital communication skills so that students can share and develop their ideas and aspirations online,
Digital literacy and social communication training should enable students to use social media as a platform so that they can share their values. Once students can articulate their skills and aspirations online, they also learned better control of their behaviour and improved their communication skills , they can start conversation with a new audience who might engage with them in all creative ways.
We should not stop digital literacy training that uses the internet and social media to achieve pre-defined outcomes such as finding a job or setting up a business. There has to be commitment and rewards for student online to pursue knowledge but also to learn the basis of making a living .
To acquire knowledge is sometime expensive especially if the student is not sponsored nor yet finding income to support his studies and yet keep enrolling for course which sometime are expensive and exceed their capacity .Mentors and teachers will need to relay the ideas to student take up such training with integrity , creativeness and entrepreneurship spirit to ensure a clear focus agenda that acquiring knowledge is Not a task , and DO Not to forget how to live .
“Networked literacy is what the web is about. It’s about understanding how people and communication networks work. It’s the understanding of how to find information and how to be found. It’s about how to read hyperlinked text articles, and understand the connections that are made when you become “friends” or “follow” someone on a network. It’s the understanding of how to stay safe and how to use the networked knowledge that is the World Wide Web. Networked Literacy is about understanding connections.”
