We need to be sure to explain what we mean by it and how we are using it any time we are using terms that could easily be seen in different lights depending on the context and background. We had a chance to really dive in and spell out the aspects of digital literacy we find most important. For me, because of my background in helping students with ePortfolios, digital literacy related to the creation of digital projects and participation in the online world is what I chose to focus on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find the video series I created for this course below. There is an introductory video for college instructors who want to incorporate digital identity assignments into their courses. The rest of the videos are for them to show their students, or for folks to find on their own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Digital Identity for College Students\" width=\"1140\" height=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/videoseries?list=PL4fUczp-LmqHLc8mk8ZDRBrKLB6Xp-3LD\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I tried to keep each video around 4-5 minutes for the sake of attention spans. People are also less likely to start a video if they see it is longer. Of course, I got a little carried away with the video about design. It&#8217;s 9 minutes and that&#8217;s after I cut some stuff! I used Zoom and Screencast-O-Matic to do the recordings. The editing was all done with Screencast-O-Matic. I had planned to use the video project on Adobe Creative Cloud Express, but you can only insert 30 seconds of video at a time, and I had already recorded longer videos to put together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the assignments we had was to find extra articles and explain their relevance to fellow classmates. We were given the choice, and I decided to do mine through an Adobe Creative Cloud Express webpage. I wanted it to have some color and not be solely text based. You can go to the assignment, by clicking below, to read about multiliteracies and multimodality for multilingual learners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/express.adobe.com\/page\/t4wxYkDXc2EC8\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"505\" src=\"https:\/\/fs.wp.odu.edu\/ltyson\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9087\/2022\/03\/Capture-1024x505.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1001\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fs.wp.odu.edu\/ltyson\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9087\/2022\/03\/Capture-1024x505.png 1024w, https:\/\/fs.wp.odu.edu\/ltyson\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9087\/2022\/03\/Capture-300x148.png 300w, https:\/\/fs.wp.odu.edu\/ltyson\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9087\/2022\/03\/Capture-768x379.png 768w, https:\/\/fs.wp.odu.edu\/ltyson\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9087\/2022\/03\/Capture.png 1405w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Go to my <a href=\"https:\/\/express.adobe.com\/page\/t4wxYkDXc2EC8\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/express.adobe.com\/page\/t4wxYkDXc2EC8\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener ugc\">supplemental instruction assignment webpage<\/a>, or click the image.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The main function of this course was to help us see some of the complication in using &#8216;digital literacy&#8217; as a sweeping term without taking time to define it.
