About

Workplaces are changing. To  live, learn and work in a digital society, your students need to develop the digital skills that employers want now, as well as the confidence and deeper-seated capabilities that will enable them to progress in their careers and adapt to emerging technologies.  

Our research  carried out in 2020 shows that students feel motivated to use technology to support their learning but need more guidance to assess their own digital skills for career planning (question twenty five and question thirty respectively).  

How do we design in opportunities into courses for students to develop their digital skills and capabilities?  

This workshop will build confidence to design and deliver a digital curriculum that will prepare students to learn successfully in digital settings, and to thrive in a digital world.  

It will also include a series of activities which will support participants with designing in opportunities for students to develop relevant digital capabilities into their course, module or unit of learning.  

Benefits  

  • Increase your confidence to “train the trainer” and encourage the use of digital in the curriculum   
  • Equip you to design curriculum activities to support students’ digital capabilities  
  • Take away materials and skills to share with your teams  so they have a chance to implement too 
  • Share good practice and learn from others from within academic community 
  • One year of online support following the course  
  • Learn from subject matter experts within the Jisc  community  
  • All course materials provided  

Course origins  

Our blog post,  designing for digital capabilities in the curriculum: what’s new?  expands on why we developed this training.  

Who should attend

This workshop is aimed at curriculum staff, whether subject specialist lecturers or other professionals involved in the curriculum (eg from the library, learning technology, learning support or employability teams).  

What we cover

The workshop will cover the following:

  • The digital curriculum
    Participants will consider how digital technologies are changing the pathways of learners into, through, and beyond their studies.
  • Developing digital capability in the curriculum
    Participants will use the  Jisc six elements digital capabilities model and the learner profile to choose activities that develop specific digital capabilities. They will then consider how best to adapt those activities to their own subject specialism.
  • Digital teaching skills
    Participants will use the Jisc digital capability teacher profiles and  digital capability discovery tool  to consider their digital teaching practice. They will gain confidence in areas where they are already proficient, and new ideas to try in areas where they are less confident.

Training outcomes

Participants will:

  • Discuss how the curriculum is changing and needs to change in response to digital opportunities and transformations
  • Design and adapt curriculum activities to support students’ digital capabilities
  • Assess their own digital capabilities for teaching, and plan to follow up their results
