Digital literacy includes the ability to find and use information (otherwise known as information literacy) but goes beyond this to encompass communication, collaboration and teamwork, social awareness in the digital environment, understanding of e-safety and creation of new information. Both digital and information literacy are underpinned by critical thinking and evaluation.

The 18-19 March “MOOCs and Libraries: Massive Opportunity or Overwhelming Challenge?” event featured thoughtful and provocative presentations about how libraries are already getting involved with MOOCs, and engaged attendees in discussions about strategic opportunities and challenges going forward. OCLC Research Senior Program Officer Merrilee Proffitt helped to organize the event and has posted a series of six blog posts on the OCLC Research blog, Hangingtogether, that recap presentation highlights and summarize its outcomes.
These blog posts include:
In addition, a MOOCs and Libraries video playlist that comprises 11 videos of the event sessions is available on the MOOCs and Libraries event page, and on the OCLC Research YouTube Channel. Links to the presenters’ slides, the next steps document (.pdf: 124K/1 pp.), the MOOCs online poll responses (.pdf: 67K/2 pp.), and the #mooclib archived tweets pdf: 639K/32 pp.) from this event are also available on the MOOCs and Libraries event page.

Microsoft Outlook is available for students, faculty and staff both on campus and out of campus via Outlook Web Access (OWA).
OWA needs a browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Firefox, etc.) to access email, calendar etc.
On campus, in the open labs, as well as on office computers, Microsoft outlook is also available through the Client Outlook. The Outlook client is software application installed on each particular computer on campus:
The advantage of OWA is that it allows email, calendar and contacts to be accessed from anywhere.
The advantage of the Outlook client is that allows greater productivity and additional features, compared to OWA.

The House is passing 3 bills:
The House passed the Cybersecurity Enhancement Act, which mandates strategic guidance for federal cybersecurity research and development. To establish that guidance, the bill calls for input from public and private stakeholders, and strengthens security automation standards and checklists for federal systems.
How this will impact education and academia? What input can SCSU contribute with?…
