Digital Literacy, Ethics, and Responsibility

This podcast reflects on how my understanding of digital literacy has developed through the module, moving beyond a focus on technical competence to consider the ethical responsibilities involved in using digital technologies in education.It explores issues such as student privacy, safeguarding, digital citizenship, and access, drawing on classroom experience to consider how these challenges play out in practice. The discussion highlights the role of educators in making thoughtful, context-sensitive decisions about technology, with attention to inclusion, learner wellbeing, and fairness.Overall, the podcast positions digital literacy as a professional responsibility that requires ongoing reflection rather than a fixed set of skills.
