Creating “digital literacy” for new learning models

To keep up with the increasing computer competence of students and their experience of digital media, a substantial effort is required in order to develop “digital literacy” amongst teachers. It is important to reinforce the area of IT and pedagogical development with respect to content and creativity. This work in progress describes collaboration between Chalmers Medialab and the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering to develop the competence to handle interactive story telling, interactive system design and the transformation of ideas into digital media. Three projects are presented: electrical measurement laboratory, digiflex and “current picture”
