Supporting literacy and digital skills development

Abstract

UNESCO International Literacy Day "Literacy and Skills Development".

Library staff with the assistance of student library assistants delivered a month of workshops to observe UNESCO International Literacy Day. The workshop focused on broadening digital skills and guiding AUD support staff in exploring free or fre-mium course materials and learning resources on the web. The workshop was designed using Springhare Libguides platform to deliver basic information and digital skills required to benefit from available web-delivered course materials. The participants explored examples of resources and were assisted in setting up accounts.
