Before diving into the readings and videos for the course, I really asked myself what I knew about digital literacy, the Web, and how education is incorporated into this mix. How are these topics tied together? Does education act as a bridge between being digitally literate and mastering the Web or do they all act in unison as one cohesive unit? I found myself questioning what I know about what it meant to be digitally literate. I confess that I thought digital literacy was much like setting up your SmartTV or programming your Mac when you first turn it on. I thought it was about being able to follow directions in order to successfully operate that system. However, my original thought did not capture what digital literacy actually entails and how important it can be for the future of the digital world.

Hi everyone! My name is Madison Fox. I'm looking forward to a great month-long class with you guys.
For my six word memoir, I wanted to write the first thing that came to mind as I thought it would probably be the most accurate depiction of who I am. I finally landed on..... I am a traveler and learner. A little about me: I just completed my first year in the MAT SPED program. I've spent my summer working as a camp counselor and nannying in between. When I'm not working with the kiddos, I'm usually at spin class or wondering around Folly Beach. Madison |
