Digital Literacy Skills – preparing to make digital content on a mobile device

Having access to a mobile device that can capture and create media is amazing but there can be a tendency to pick it up and start creating before planning what you will create. Think about a really good piece of writing – did it start with a pencil or talk and planning? This page has links to ideas that could be used to help plan for film, and other media, creation in your lessons.

Assessing Numeracy and Maths with Forms

What is Microsoft Forms? – DigiLearn (glowscotland.org.uk)

What is Google Forms? – DigiLearn (glowscotland.org.uk)

Forms can be used to create Quizzes (which allow assessment and feedback) or Forms (which collect information, such as evaluations). They can contain text, images and videos, which makes them engaging and accessible to more learners. A Quiz can also be set with correct answers and this will automatically assess and provide feedback to learners, which is ideal for metacognition. They are easy to duplicate and share between staff which can support moderation, ensure assessment is proportional and comparable between classes or levels.

Mind Your Money

 

When so much spending is done online, or digitally even when in-store, surely it makes sense that we explore how cyber resilience can help us look after our finances? The UK Strategy for Financial Wellbeing aims for more ‘children and young people getting a meaningful financial education’ and we believe that cyber resilience forms a significant part of this.

This presentation explores the links between financial education and cyber resilience and ideas, such as:

  • explore how to make better spending decisions
  • understand how advertisers and influencers encourage us to spend our money
  • learn effective strategies to keep our money as safe and secure as possible

By taking the time to understand how children and young people spend their time and money online, while reflecting on their own online habits, practitioners can make learning more reflective and representative of what their learners experience. By linking these curricular areas, the learning becomes more engaging, relevant and realistic.

Cryptography


Cryptography is the study of constructing and analysing protocols that prevent third parties or the public from reading private messages. Encryption is used to secure our digital devices and services – whether that’s passwords, emails or social media – it takes information or data and disguises (encrypts) it, so that only the person who is supposed to access it can (be decrypting).

This wakelet contains links to cryptography resources that may be engaging for learners in numeracy and mathematics, computing science or social studies contexts – for example, Alan Turing and the mathematicians at Bletchley Park who decrypted hidden messages during WWII.

There are lots of other examples of encryption and cyphers throughout history – do you know of any?
