Jane Secker, ‘Developing digitally literate staff and students: experience from LSE.’<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

The \u2018<\/span>Reshaping Teaching with Technology<\/span><\/a>\u2019 seminar series is now in its third year and sees researchers and practitioners\u00a0from across the higher education sector come to Sussex to present on their work\u00a0with a technology enhanced learning theme. The programme is set to be relaunched this week as we invite Dr. Jane Secker, Copyright and Digital Literacy Advisor at London School of Economics (LSE) to Sussex.<\/span><\/p>\n

Jane\u2019s talk, \u2018<\/span>Developing digitally literate staff and students: experiences from LSE<\/span><\/a>\u2019, will reflect on 10 years of running a digital literacy programme at LSE, including the evolving nature of the programme, challenges, lessons learnt and the impact of the programme. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Jane will also share insights from LSE\u2019s Student Ambassadors for Digital Literacy programme. The second installment in this year\u2019s programme will take place on 29<\/span>th<\/span> November when Keith Smyth (Professor of Pedagogy, University of the Highlands and Islands) and Peter Hartley (Visiting Professor, Edge Hill University) will present a seminar titled \u201c<\/span>Challenges and opportunities in the post-digital age<\/span><\/a>\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is a great opportunity to meet with staff across the university to discuss current themes and listen to talks from some of the most innovative thinkers\u00a0in the field of technology enhanced learning.<\/span><\/p>\n

Digital Innovation week<\/b><\/h3>\n
