Digital Literacy Skills for FE Teachers by Jonathan P White
This practical guide for teachers and tutors in thefurther educationand skills sector will help them develop their digital literacy skills in order to enhance teaching and support student learning.
This thoughtful book provides a useful framework to help us consider some of the important questions new technology poses.. While the book is full of useful ideas, it does not just provide a ′how to′ guide but asks the reader to consider their own relationship with digital technology and how this might be developed. He backs up theory with case histories and examples, making the ideas practical and accessible. -- Sam Hart, teacher educator and English lecturer, City College Brighton and Hove
There are many references to the Digitally Literate FE and Skills Teacher Framework, which are, of course, extremely useful if you happen to be an FE or skills teacher. But even if you are not, this book is worth having, not least because it is bang up to date, with sections on MOOCs, copyright, cyberbullying and critical reading. -- Terry Freedman
