A friend sent me an infographic that offers an ‘ABC’ of digital literacy which I found interesting. It begins with ‘A is for Access; B is for Bias…’ and goes from there.

I appreciated that they included ‘educator’ and ‘librarian’ amongst their alphabet of options. We forget sometimes that even in this age of the e-info smorgasbord, we still need people to help guide our learning and our media choices. I especially miss our former school library specialist (cut for budgetary reasons some years ago) at this time of year, when part of the end-of-school cleanup involves shelving the towering pile of returned library books!

"I’m a journalist, a teacher and an e-book fiend. I work as a French teacher at a K-3 private school. I use drama, music, puppets, props and all manner of tech in my job, and I love it. I enjoy moving between all the classes and having a relationship with each child in the school. Kids are hilarious, and I enjoy watching them grow and learn. My current device of choice for reading is my Amazon Kindle Touch, but I have owned or used devices by Sony, Kobo, Aluratek and others. I also read on my tablet devices using the Kindle app, and I enjoy synching between them, so that I’m always up to date no matter where I am or what I have with me."
