Do you want to update your digital skills but aren't sure where to start?
This interactive online workshop is based on the University's Digital
Skills Framework, a tool to help staff and students evaluate their
current levels of digital capability, reflect on development needs, plan
their development path and find resources to help develop their skills.
We'll start by looking at what digital skills are, and how the
Framework categorises these into six areas. We'll then look at tools for
assessing your current levels of digital capability, and identifying
areas in which to develop your skills to help you study, research, teach
and work. This will form the basis of your skills development plan. The
last section of the workshop highlights the Resource Finder tool that
you can use to search over 700 digital skills courses and resources for
developing your skills.
By the end of the workshop, you will have assessed your current
levels of digital capability, identified at least one area for
development and found resources that will help you develop these skills.
