My Reflection on the Introductory Topic

Digital Natives and Digital Immigrants Initially, I was sceptical about Prensky’s theory of digital natives and digital immigrants. After interacting with my peers, I recognised that I was not the only one who did not identify as a digital native and therefore would not fit into Prensky’s theory. At first, I was quite focused on the age biases in Prensky’s theory. Continue reading →

Reflecting on Residency

The first week of creating content for this module has been very interesting. Reading my peer’s blogs and seeing how differently each of us has responded to the same task has helped me to establish the persona that I want on my blog. Before researching and wholly understanding what a digital resident is I would have classed myself a digital resident on most platforms. Continue reading →

Reflecting On My First Blog Post

Writing my first blog post, I quickly realised that it was going to be extremely difficult to put all the information I had gathered through research in to the minuscule 300 word limit. On top of this I really wanted my post to be as engaging, and aesthetically pleasing, and not just a page with 300 words. This is where info-graphics became extremely useful, it allowed me to give a detailed summary of what Prensky Digital Immigrants and Digital Natives meant, and what David S. Continue reading →

Lets Reflect upon the Introductory topic…

  As a psychology student, I am not exposed to the vast array of digital skills on my course that are encountered within the UOSM2008 module. Therein lies the reason why I chose the module, to expand my digital competencies using sites such as WordPress and Piktochart. Prior to the commencing of this module, I would have considered myself to be a digital resident. This is particularly because of not previously giving the notion of digital literacies any deep thought. Continue reading →

Thoughts on Digital Residency

The beginning of this module has facilitated a significant amount of thought on the concept of ‘Digital Literacy’. This topic has coincided perfectly with delivering sessions on Digital Literacy to first-year Business students, as alluded to in my first post. Continue reading →

Introductory Topic: Reflection

When initially tasked with evaluating my digital literacies and presenting them in a blog post, I didn’t anticipate how challenging it would actually be, despite considering myself highly computer competent. What I didn’t realise entering this module from an Economics background – there are various skills I rarely exercise, such as my creativity. Continue reading →

Reflection

Having previously completed a module within which writing a blog was a core component, choosing UOSM2008 seemed like a smart decision to make. I had assumed my degree background being technical, and having previous experience blog writing would aid me within this module, something which was not the case. Continue reading →
