Digital Literacy Strategies to Promote Equity
Because of remote learning it has become very clear that most students do not have the Digital Literacy/Citizenship Skills to be successful in school. They are lacking in basic Computer Fundamentals, Keyboarding and Digital Literacy skills. Even when they go back to in person learning these skills are essential to their success in school. 

In our session Digital literacy experts from Learning.com will share key strategies to promote the digital skills critical to our students’ educational careers. Participants will take away from this session actionable tactics to create an inclusive and equitable digital environment where all students can become successful digital citizens.
