David Lundie from the University of Glasgow delivered this webinar during Scottish Digital Literacy Week 2025.

 

The Teaching for Digital Citizenship project has been working with teachers, young people, ethicists and the EdTech sector across the 4 nations of the UK, to understand the aims, practices and challenges in recovering a space for moral agency in a post-digital world.

 

Citizenship, ethics and justice will be central to our new digital literacy curriculum updates.

 

The aim of this session is to set out a data justice approach, in which all young people have a right to information integrity – to understand that our current information ecosystem is not inevitable, it is a product of technical and social conditions which can be acted upon and changed.

 

We are looking to engage teachers in processes of reflection on their own practice, drawing on examples of leading practice across the curriculum from our project so far, and introducing a self-evaluation tool which has been co-designed with teachers in our community of practice.
