  1. Digital Fluency Diagnostic for Staff • The purpose of this diagnostic tool is to support individual staff efforts to improve their digital fluency. It can be used individually or as part of the appraisal process. • Currently there are only five areas of digital fluency you can investigate inside the tool, but we hope to add more soon. These areas were chosen based upon identifying the digital fluency needs of academic staff, and selecting a sample to investigate in this prototype. • The diagnostic tool will ask you to select an area then evaluate your current level to direct you to appropriate resources • To begin, press F5 to start the slideshow, then click Start below.

  2. What is Digital Fluency? • Digital fluency is having the attitudes and skills that are important to live, learn and work in the digital age. Digital fluency has four component parts: • IT capabilities – being able to choose and use the technologies and tools available that best fit the task  • Information literacy – “knowing when and why you need information, where to find it, and how to evaluate, use and communicate it in an ethical manner” (CILIP) • Critical thinking – reasonable, reflective thinking that is focused on deciding what to believe and do • Online presence – selecting and using appropriate communication techniques relevant to different situations; creating and presenting an online identity that reflects who you want to be • In addition to these four elements, digital fluency requires an acknowledgement that change is constant and skills need continuous development, that it isn’t solely about knowing how to do something but knowing how to learn to do something new. It’s a blend of both capabilities and confidence when approaching future learning activities. • Next you will be asked to consider which element of your digital fluency you want to investigate CONTINUE
