Student Ambassadors for Digital Literacy
The Student Ambassadors for Digital Literacy (SADL) project is a fantastic opportunity to improve your own digital literacy skills and help your fellow students make the most of the technology at students’ disposal while you’re here at LSE.
SADL is looking to recruit 40 students from the from IR, Statistics and Social Policy departments to become digital ambassadors. These ambassadors will attend four workshops throughout the year on various areas of digital learning - from how to best use the library’s many digital resources to how to manage your digital footprint that prospective employers see online.
Being a SADL ambassador is a great chance to improve your digital skills - which as well as being valuable skills to have in themselves, will show you the most effective ways to access to LSE’s digital resources (saving you a bunch of time) - as well as your communication skills, as a large part of the role is sharing what you’ve learnt with your fellow students via blogs and posts on Moodle.
The project, which has received funding from LSE Library and LTI, was a huge success last year. Check out last year’s ambassadors talking about why they think the role is important and what the most important things they learnt were.
If you’re from IR, Stats or Social Policy, think you’d benefit from learning how to best use technology and want to help your fellow students make sure you apply to be an ambassador here!
