This topic is very relevant for my future classroom. With how important technology has become in the recent couple of years, I believe classrooms are going to be involving digital literacy a lot more. As a college student, digital literacy is used almost everyday in all my classes. With technology expanding and increasing everyday there is no telling how it will be in the next 10 years. This is relevant because this type of teaching helps promote opinion wondering, connections to information, and asking questions on whether they are understanding something correctly. I could include this in my future classroom by having students work in groups to do a research project. Every group will include students with a wide range of knowledge so everyone can help contribute to the project. This will also help the students by testing their credibility on the sites they use, understanding on how the sites influenced their opinion, and see if they knew what they were talking about and connected it to other scenarios. Digital literacy connects students to their work and helps communicate with each other easier. With involving digital literacy in my future classroom I believe my students will have a better understanding on how to connect information from one domain to another and to be expressive on their opinions and information seeking.
