Week commencing 13 May is Scottish Digital Literacy Week. To assist your planning for this, I have included the Digital Self-Evaluation spreadsheet which is taken from Education Scotland’s Evaluating use of digital to enhance learning and teaching, features of highly effective digital learning, teaching and assessment in schools. This will help you think about your next steps.
Digital Self-Evaluation for schools
Education Scotland are hosting a number of events throughout this week and all the information can be found here: https://blogs.glowscotland.org.uk/glowblogs/digilearn/events/event/digital-literacy-week-scotland-2024/
If you have any staff members who are doing some interesting digital practice, please let me know, especially if they would be willing to share at a Teach Meet.
For staff, this is a chance to try out new things. This is Education Scotland’s Digital Skills toolkit for staff and has lots of ideas for essential and core skills.

If you are looking for some iPad ideas, our Apple Regional Training Centre (RTC) has plenty. Check out their previous sessions here: https://blogs.glowscotland.org.uk/re/renfrewshirertc/previous-sessions/ and their ideas here: https://blogs.glowscotland.org.uk/re/renfrewshirertc/12-days-of-christmas/
In the lead up to and throughout #SDLW24, we will be posting ideas on the DigiLearnRen blog and on X (formerly Twitter). Make sure you follow us to keep up-to-date.
If you have any questions or want to share your ideas, please get in touch.
