Episode 1: Digital Fluency in Emergency Education Contexts

This episode is available in English. In this episode, we learn from Dr. Agnes Chigona, Research Fellow at Cape Peninsula University of Technology in South Africa, about the importance of digital fluency in education in crisis-affected contexts. Dr. Agnes highlights key differences between digital literacy and digital fluency, and explains why it's important for students and teachers to focus on fluency rather than only digital literacy.   

The host of this episode is Dr. Diana Woolis, Director of the Center for Learning and Practice at the Childhood Education International and Co-Chair of the INEE Distance Education Reference Group.
