Hi Glen, I have recently started exploring new literacies including digital, media and technological literacy and how such literacies could be developed and mastered by educators so they can effectively integrate them into curriculum. Looking forward to find out more about the on line course since I'm planning to develop one for the academic staff in my institution. regards Vasi
