<![CDATA[Teaching in a Tech age ]]> https://rss.com/podcasts/teaching-in-a-tech-age In this episode, we explore how historic and contemporary technological advancements are reshaping education. Moving beyond technical skills, we examine digital literacy as an ethical, critical, and civic responsibility. We discuss student privacy, safeguarding, digital citizenship, equity of access, and the growing influence of AI in classrooms. What does it truly mean to be digitally literate today — and what responsibilities do educators carry in preparing learners for a rapidly evolving technological world?

This episode was informed by key readings on digital literacy, digital citizenship, safeguarding, and educational technology ethics.
