?QUESTIONS
1. How do you differentiate and prioritise the learning of different digital literacies for different publics? (Simon Ensor) !2a. How do you start the conversation with folks immersed in 1990s information literacy that does not fully engage with evolving technology? (George Station) !2b. How do you start the conversation with folks who see literacy as reading & writing only, and see the rest as skills that aren't really literacies? (George Station) !3. I work with language teachers and show that online texts are different from offline texts and understanding online texts asks for new and additional skills and strategies. I think this way of looking at digital literacy, I would say an important part of the total picture, is a bit absent in you total picture, I would say. (Jeroen Clemens)
