Therefore, being digitally literate is not simply a case of being 'Information Technology Adept', but more about feeling confident in communicating using a range of digital technologies. As participation in virtual worlds gives users access to a range of literacy practices I was interested to discover whether digital literacy skills would be honed by an online cohort of trainee teachers spread across Europe whose only relationship with one another would be within the parameters of 'Second Life' and through their 'avatars' (their on-screen characters). This seminar will provide some of the answers! http://rsc-south-west.ac.uk/index.php?p=14_2&e=438 The day will be suitable for technical managers and staff who are responsible for managing SharePoint installations and who may be considering migrating from SP 2007 to SP 2010.
