Description
We cordially invite you to attend the inaugural Digital Literacy Summer Institute to be held June 24-26, 2025. The Summer Institute has been designed to support continued faculty learning with the goal of enhancing digital literacy across Grand Valley State University's curriculum. Building upon the strong foundation of expertise and best practices already in place, we seek to bring together faculty from across the disciplines and experience levels to learn and explore.
The week begins with a required opening session (Tuesday, June 24, 9am-12pm) that introduces a digital literacy framework and sets the stage for the week's sessions. Optional concurrent sessions on Tuesday afternoon, Wednesday, and Thursday allow participants to select topics to explore more deeply. Participants will engage in hands-on practice and gain insights into how digital literacy platforms and approaches can be effectively integrated into their courses and professional practices. Lunch provided each day.
Session topics will include:
• Digital Literacy Framework
• Digital Citizenship and Ethics
• AI Introduction and
Overview
• AI and Student Writing
• AI and Critical
Thinking
• Digital Information Literacy
• Online
Presentation Assignments
• Digital Etiquette
• Digital
Approaches to Accessibility
• Strategies to Support Responsible
Student Use of AI
