DESCRIPTION
Following the use of the Visitor and Resident mapping process to explore the way students study online, two learning activities are illustrated which scaffold the development of digital literacies.TRANSCRIPT

Developing Digital Literacies
•Outcomes from using the Visitor and Resident mapping process with postgraduate students•Reflection on why and how we encourage more ‘resident’ behaviour•Illustrative examples from Bioethics courses

Students are resident across a range of social platforms
Learning Resources used primarily in Visitor mode
A Typical Student Map

VLE: Students only used the discussion board or other chat tools when they were prescribed for assessed activities.
The majority had Linked In accounts, but in general these were not used or up to date.
Neither cohort used Twitter for their studies, The majority had Facebook accounts which they used extensively in a
social context Some students had set up their own Facebook groups within study
groups to share ideas/ resources / information with peers. These groups were initiated by the students with no involvement of academic staff.
Outcomes from the mapping exercise

Is this a problem? Most students felt that they did not make the best
use of technology in either learning or promoting their professional identity
Developing digital literacies is

Digital Literacies?
“those capabilities which fit an individual for living, learning and working in a digital society.”
![Page 9: Developing Digital Literacies through the Visitor and Resident Mapping Process](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110302/54928ab1b47959814a8b46b0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Digital literacies: the use of digital tools to:
undertake academic research, writing and critical thinking; digital professionalism; the use of specialist digital tools and data sets; communicating ideas effectively in a range of media; producing, sharing and critically evaluating information; collaborating in virtual networks; using digital technologies to support reflection and PDP; managing digital reputation and showcasing achievements.'.

“practice perspective”Dohn (2009)
“employing a Web 2.0 technology does not necessarily entail pedagogically innovative Web 2.0 practices “

e.g. Use this Bloom’s Taxonomy of Digital Literacies developed
through the CASCADE project at University of Exeter
Identify the Digital Competencies/Literacies that you want to develop

Creation
Curation
Communication
Or, take a more thematic approach:
Collaboration

Learning Outcomes for Bioethics classes
Bioethics:• Encourage students to read
articles in mainstream media on advances in science & medicine
• Identify ethical issues/ stakeholders
• Encourage comment and reflection
Digital Literacies:• Information curation,
evaluation and sharing; critical analysis of online information

Example 1: Supporting curation & collaboration
Developing a community to share resources and ideas using Google +
Creating shared documents and tweeting findings
![Page 18: Developing Digital Literacies through the Visitor and Resident Mapping Process](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110302/54928ab1b47959814a8b46b0/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Approach 1: Scoop-it
• No Comments on articles• No idea who has read them• No opportunity for students
to add their own stories
![Page 19: Developing Digital Literacies through the Visitor and Resident Mapping Process](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110302/54928ab1b47959814a8b46b0/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Approach 2: Google +
![Page 20: Developing Digital Literacies through the Visitor and Resident Mapping Process](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110302/54928ab1b47959814a8b46b0/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Approach 2: Google +
• Comments on articles• Students add their own stories• “walled garden”

Example 2: Supporting curation & collaborationAIM:•To engage large ( >200) cohort of 1st year UG students with Bioethics•90 minute, stand alone class

documentsANTI GMO or PRO GMO
