New date confirmed: Moodle Academy webinar “Environmental awareness as a core digital competence” on Thursday 13 April at 8:00 UTC
by Sandra Matz.  

We invite you to join us for the next Moodle Academy free webinar “Environmental awareness as a core digital competence” that we have rescheduled to Thursday 13 April, 8:00-9:00 UTC.

The development of digital literacy and digital competencies are widely recognised as essential in our increasingly digitised world. However, as we begin to come to terms with the extent of the climate crisis facing the world, this webinar asks the question: is it time for digital literacy to focus its attention on the impact our digital activity has on the environment? 

At this webinar, which is free to attend, we will hear from Dr Peter Tiernan, Lecturer at the School of STEM Education, Innovation and Global Studies at Dublin City University in Ireland. The presenter will begin by examining popular digital tools and services used for entertainment and work purposes and highlight their environmental impact and potential mitigating factors. Following this, he will examine definitions of digital literacy to reveal a complex set of competencies which, as yet do not engage with the environmental impact of our activity. The speaker will then examine widely used digital literacy frameworks and exposes their relative lack of engagement with the environmental impact of our digital lives. 

Finally, he will urge further discussion on environmental impact as a component of digital literacy and propose ways to achieve this with his students, using the language of existing digital literacy definitions. And he will present the audience with a suggested framework addition which addresses these concerns.

Note: This webinar is part of the free course ‘Moodle Academy webinars‘. You have to be enrolled in the course to join the webinar.

Register at Moodle Academy.

Processo Open Arms, Oscar Camps: “Mi aspetto giustizia”

by
Milano, 24 mar. (askanews) – “A nessuno piace avere 80 morti dietro la porta di casa, è un peccato, ma stiamo assistendo a un disprezzo per la vita come mai prima d’ora in Europa”. A parlare è il fondatore di Open Arms, Oscar Camps, oggi testimone nel processo in cui è imputato il leader della Lega e vicepremier Matteo Salvin.

“Penso che non dovremmo permettere che questo continui ad accadere – ha sottolineato – Tutte le vite contano, tutte le alleanze difendono la tutela della vita umana in mare, di ogni vita umana in mare, non solo quella occidentale, ma tutti sono uguali. E non sta accadendo, stiamo stravolgendo le convenzioni internazionali, stiamo pervertendo il diritto marittimo internazionale, e questo è molto grave e deve finire. Speriamo che la giustizia italiana ponga fine a questa situazione”.

Cosa si aspetta da questo processo? “Giustizia – ha risposto Camps – E che si ponga fine una volta per tutte a questo disprezzo per la vita. Il vero problema è proprio la mancanza di aiuti in mare. Lo abbiamo visto nel 2016, lo abbiamo visto nel 2017 e dal 2018 è cambiato tutto. La politica in Italia è cambiata, il governo è cambiato, l’atteggiamento della Guardia Costiera è cambiato e le navi umanitarie sono diventate il grande nemico dell’Italia e sembra che siamo responsabili di tutti i problemi del Paese.
