Dinowitz questions lack of digital literacy curriculum
Dinowitz asks why DOE does not have a required digital literacy curriculum given decades of social media and media bias concerns. He argues DOE should not wait for state guidance and should ensure digital literacy and civics education happen in all schools, not just provide opportunities.
And I do want to get clarity on something because I keep hearing this reference to is this digital literacy.
Is there not a DOE-approved digital literacy curriculum?
I mean, we've had issues with digital literacy.
We've had for well over a decade social media.
We've had bias in the media.
We've had, when I was in high school, in the 1900s, we had...
It makes me sound right.
Oh, I see some other people who are also old as hell like I am.
That we had lessons in curriculum just like this because the internet was coming of age and anyone could put anything on.
So how is it that we don't have a digital literacy curriculum?
How is it that the DOE isn't requiring this?
And yes, update it as necessary, but how is this not part of the general curriculum in our schools?
