Focus on Digital Literacy

Recently, I was reading ESM school districts new letter that is sent to people who live in the district. While I was reading it I came across an article all about 21st century Learning. The focus of this article was Digital Literacy. One thing that really stood out to me about this article was a teacher in the district said "We would like our student to be fluent with the technologies they use in their daily lives and able to use them for learning, both now and in the future." This stood out to me because there are so many technologies that can help students. It is our job as their teacher to make these technologies accessible for the students. This will not only help students in our classroom but throughout the rest of their lives.
