   JISC are holding a series of webinars to disseminate and discuss the work of the Developing digital literacies projects. Each webinar will last up to an hour and will discuss an aspect of the programme’s work. The webinars are free and open to all, but please sign up at http://www.eventbrite.com/org/2564198618?s=12301764 to let JISC know you’re coming, and to get the right link to join. (Though see below for the separate link for the Digital literacy in FE webinar.) The following webinars are confirmed: *Current issues and approaches in developing digital literacy* Tuesday 12 February, 13.00-14.00 This webinar will discuss what digital literacies are and why it is important for universities and colleges to develop the digital literacies of their students and staff. We will look at some of the issues to consider when planning an institutional approach to developing digital literacies, and projects from Jisc’s Developing Digital Literacies programme will highlight some of the approaches that they have found effective in their own contexts. Sign up for the ‘current issues’ webinar at http://jiscdl12feb-eorg.eventbrite.com/ *Rising to the digital literacy challenge in further education* Thursday 28 February, 11:00-12:00 This webinar, organised in conjunction with the Jisc regional support centres, provides three different perspectives on how to address the challenge of staff development needs in order to ensure that digital literacies are embedded across the organisation. The two Developing digital literacies projects based in FE colleges, WORDLE and PADDLE, will be speaking at the event.

We look at how post-graduate certificates in teaching and learning in higher education (PGCertHE) courses and CPD processes are adapting to digital technologies, both in their design and operation and in the educational practices for which the PGCertHEs are preparing staff. We introduce a new wiki including case studies of technology-informed practice, indexed against the UKPSF areas of activity, core knowledge and values.
