This episode is part one of three in which James and Orna will look at transitioning to the physical classroom and how teachers and students can keep using and improving on the digital skills they’ve picked up and used this last year. In this first part they discuss digital skills broadly, including what they are, why they’re important and how they will become more and more important in our daily and work lives.
