Building Digital Literacy for Digital Natives in English Classrooms

Digital literacy has become one of vital features that students need to learn and develop as computers and the Internet have increasingly played an important role in their lives during years. However, it is challenging for teachers to teach digital literacy to students in this generation because they are considered digital natives who are familiar with computers and the Internet from an early age. This make teacher need to carefully prepare about contents and activities that are useful, interesting, and related to students’ real-life experiences.

This workshop will provide some theories, ideas, and lessons which integrate English language with Digital Literacy for Secondary School Students. Contents about Digital Literacy will be presented through English Language and students will learn both at the same time.

Activity Type: Lecture and Demonstration
