Digital Literacy, and Digital Scholarship

Digital literacy 

What are digital competencies required for successful learning in self-directed, blended and traditional learning and training settings?

Medical Education Research


(see page 9)







Tip - anytime you are introduced to a new concept/idea - do concurrent text, image and video searches, using search engine optimisation strategies embedded in search engines (e.g. Google) to highlight most clicked, most read, most often cited/linked to/recommended digital online content.

Tip - as you do first cut review of content (both in syllabus, and which you find yourself), look for key words-concepts-illustrations, and build you learning, and new searches - deep dives around these. While always looking to "use" (by discussing, referencing, citing ... and asking questions about) these ideas - skills - impressions/opinions/viewpoints (defend-argue for-examine from multiple viewpoints). Idea is to "transfer" to practice. Apply, and be able to apply, to practice.

Tip: Challenge yourself to apply Miler's pyramid to Medical Education Research competency training - know, knows how, shows how, and does ...... Then apply this / use this model for "self-directed learning". Google search for "millers pyramid"

... by asking yourself questions, giving yourself tasks ... search and look for what is, and how to do ..... then practice, practice, practice (which includes use, discuss, apply, get feedback ... including from running online tests on dummy and pilot data sets ... iteratively and repeatedly ... until you achieve competency, proficiency, and mastery ... then teach others how to ... "see one, do, then teach - with reflection, and feedback"

Lastly (for today), Tip: for my own learning, when encountering something new, I find the first step ... becoming familiar with key concepts, and skills ... the ability to recognise ... then describe ... the key, most important, foundational step. You then iteratively and cumulatively build up your knowledge, skills and feel (for, and tacit knowledge and impressions of a topic, theme and area) on this foundation. How "good" you become is only limited by how much time, effort, practice, and feedback (deliberate practice) you undertake. And how much you care about this. Everything begins and ends with your motivation, and purpose. And whether you have to, and want to use your "new"/"this" knowledge and skills.

One more Tip ... for your own thesis project ... find something you really, really care about (knowing answer to) ... and you will find the motivation, training, and means to find the answer(s). And complete your MHPE thesis proposal, and project.
