[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does Digital Literacy count as a tech class?  DD #1 is taking her tech class as a senior in HS.[/quote]

No, Digital Literacy is not tech. It is a language arts class (when DS took it a few years ago).[/quote]

It was mentioned in our school that it was a “tech” class. [/quote]

I’m not sure what this class is supposed to be classified as(language arts or tech) but I know my child is bored to death with it and the teacher.  Besides doing Wordly Wise and annotating digital articles,[b] I’ve not been able to glean what else they are doing or learning.[/b]  Even the teacher wasn’t able to clearly articulate where the class was going.  I’d welcome anything that made this class more engaging for the students and actual dissected the many forms of digital communications that now exist and that kids need to be literate and functional users on.[/quote]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who does not quite get Digital Literacy.  [/quote]
