Having strong digital literacy skills is not an option – it’s a must.
In today’s information age, whether in academics or the job market, students need to possess a broad range of abilities – from conducting deep research, to evaluating a source, to creating and communicating content responsibly. To support LBUSD in addressing this need, the 2018 Fund-a-Need Navigating the Information Age will invest in a district-wide Digital Library Specialist, as well as part-time teacher coaches. Using a proven model, this team will lead a K-12 effort to improve students’ digital literacy skills.
The 2018 Fund-a-Need was held at the Dinner Dance on February 10.
