I’ve been working with schools, colleges and universities for nearly 8 years. Working to promote entrepreneurship and digital skills to make young people more employable and teach them how to innovate. Digital research is becoming increasingly important and educators and students need to know how to curate it.
The internet represents a fundamental shift in how educators and students learn and engage their coursework, gather information, and conduct academic research. We need to know how to do online research. From academic standpoint, digital research skills enable us to be better and more aware as learners. And on a larger scale, students who are digitally literate are more capable of making contributions to the world. Not only as professionals, but as people.
