Digital Literacy
Digital literacy can be defined as the various skills, knowledge, and abilities that enable a person
to use electronic devices effectively. By promoting the learning of digital literacy in your
classroom, students can effectively use all of the various devices in their lives to enhance
learning.
Digital literacy, also known as virtual learning and e-learning has the potential to improve
lifelong learning. It involves learning through various technology platforms, such as computers,
the internet, remotely, or a combination of all three. Becoming digitally literate means that
students develop technological skills learn authorship rules, such as Internet Safety, Ethics of
using online resources (copyright and plagiarism), understand how to access online information
and learn social responsibility while interacting on social networks.
Key Concepts of Digital Literacy
1. Digital media are networked.
2. Digital media are persistent, searchable and shareable.
3. Digital media have unknown and unexpected audiences.
4. Digital media experiences are real, but don’t always feel real.
5. How we respond and behave when using digital media is influenced by the architecture of the
platforms, which reflects the biases and assumptions of their creators.
The Internet is a global network of billions of computers and other electronic devices. With the
Internet, it's possible to access almost any information, communicate with anyone else in the
world, and do much more.

Digital Citizenship
Digital citizenship can be defined as engaging in appropriate and responsible behaviour when
using technology. It encompasses digital literacy, ethics, etiquette, online safety, norms, rights,
culture and more. A digital citizen is one who knows what is right and wrong, exhibits intelligent
technology behavior, and makes good choices when using technology.
Digital Citizenship is a concept which helps us understand what all technology users should
know to use technology appropriately and responsibly.
What is e-safety?
E-Safety at a simple level means being safe on the internet. Some people also include the safe
use of technology in this as well. The pace at which technology is evolving can make it difficult
to know what to include when talking about the safe use of the internet.
In schools, teachers will play an extremely important role in inspiring young people and shaping
their futures, but they also have a responsibility to safeguard children’s wellbeing, in both the
classroom and online. Online abuse can take shape in a number of forms including:
 Bullying/cyber bullying
 Sexual Exploitation
 Grooming
 Emotional Abuse
PRESENTATION

ASSIGNMENT: Mention the forms of online abuse.

SECOND PERIOD: 40 Minutes

CONTENT
Area of Risk Classifying E-safety
There are three key areas of risk when it comes to e-safety: content, contact, and conduct.
The first one, content, is about illegal, inappropriate, and harmful content, such as images, text,
video or sound.
Contact is concerned with who the children are interacting with online and directly leads into
conduct. That is focused on how they are being contacted and what is being exchanged. What is
this unknown person's behaviour? Is there a danger of things like grooming, bullying, or revenge
porn?
A lot of a child's internet time will be conducted within a school environment and it's a key place
where e-safety will be implemented.
Cyber Bullying
Cyber bullying is the "process of using the internet, cell phones or other devices to send or post
text or images intended to hurt or embarrass another person”.
Ways to deal with cyber bullying
These are five ways you can deal with cyber bullying as an internet user:
1. Don't respond instantly
2. Educate accordingly
3. Report the bully
4. Use the block feature
5. Keep your personal information private

A mobile device is a general term for any type of handheld computer. These devices are
designed to be extremely portable, and they can often fit in your hand. Some mobile devices—
like tablets, e-readers, and smartphones—are powerful enough to do many of the same things
you can do with a desktop or laptop computer.
E-book readers are similar to tablet computers, except they are mainly designed for reading e-
books (digital, downloadable books). Notable examples include the Amazon Kindle, Barnes &
Noble Nook, and Kobo. Most e-readers use an e-ink display, which is easier to read than a
traditional computer display. You can even read in bright sunlight, just like if you were reading a
regular book.
A smartphone is a more powerful version of a traditional cell phone. In addition to the same
basic features—phone calls, voicemail, text messaging—smartphones can connect to the Internet
over Wi-Fi or a cellular network (which requires purchasing a monthly data plan). This means
you can use a smartphone for the same things you would normally do on a computer, such as
checking your email, browsing the Web, or shopping online.

Subscriber Identity Module (SIM)
One of the key features of GSM is the subscriber identity module (SIM), commonly known as a SIM card.
The SIM is detachable smart card containing the user’s subscription information and phonebook. This
allows the user to retain his or her information after switching off the handsets. Alternatively, the user
can also change operators while retaining the handset simply by changing the SIM, some operators will
bloc10 - 11 this by allowing the phone to use only a single SIM or only a SIM issued by them; this
practice is known as SIM locking, and is illegal in some countries.

Mobile messaging typically from a mobile phone or mobile device, examples includes Short
Message Service (SMS) texting, Multimedia Message Service (MMS) pictures and sounds to a
host of wireless access protocol (WAP) mobile messaging services like WhatsApp, WeChat,
Kakao, Kik, Line, etc. The latter being device agnostic, meaning they can be installed and used
on many different types of mobile phone platforms.

Number system
Number system is defined as a system of writing to express numbers. It is the mathematical
notation for representing numbers of a given set by using digits or other symbols in consistent
manner. It provides a unique a unique representation of every number and represents the
arithmetic and algebra structure of the figure.
Number System and Bases
Binary Number System (Base 2) A computer can understand only the “on” and “off” state of a
switch. These two states are represented by 1 and 0. The combination of 1 and 0 form binary
numbers. These numbers represent various data. As two digits are used to represent numbers, it
is called a binary or base 2 number system.
For example, Convert 1011012 in decimal is
= 1 x 25 + 0 x 24 + 1 x 23 + 1 x 22 + 0 x 21 + 1 x 20
= 1 x 32 + 0 x 16 + 1 x 8 + 1 x 4 + 0 x 2 + 1 x 1
= 32 + 8 + 4 + 1
= 4510
Octal Number System (Base 8) This system uses digits 0 to 7 (i.e. 8 digits) to represent a
number and the numbers are as a base of 8.
For example, 248 in decimal is
= 2×81+4×80
= 2010
PRESENTATION
- Teacher explains number system
- Teacher guides learners mention number bases
- Teacher lists and explains the number bases.
EVALUATION: State out numbers in each system
ASSIGNMENT: convert from one number bases to another.
SECOND PERIOD: 40 Minutes
Decimal Number System Decimal number system is a base 10 number system having 10 digits
from 0 to 9. This means that any numerical quantity can be represented using these 10 digits.
Decimal number system is also a positional value system. This means that the value of digits will
depend on its position. Let us take an example to understand this.
Hexadecimal Number System (Base 16) In this system, 16 digits used to represent a given
number. Thus it is also known as the base 16 number system. Each digit position represents a
power of 16. As the base is greater than 10, the number system is supplemented by letters.
Following are the hexadecimal symbols: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F
To take A, B, C, D, E, and F as part of the number system is conventional and has no logical or
deductive reason.

UNITS OF STORAGE IN COMPUTER
Computer memory is a storage location where data / information are kept or stored. All data,
information, text, numbers, audio,, video etc are converted into 1’sand 0’s and stored in different
types of storage in order to be processed by the computer CPU. Hence, we have various units of
storage. They are as follows :
Binary Digit (BIT) It is the first and the smallest unit of computer memory. It is a unit of data
that can be either of the two conditions: 0 or 1.
Nibble It is a storage unit that is in a sequence of 4 bits. It is equivalent to 4 bits (half of a byte)
i.e 0101, 1110, 0101, 1101 etc.
Byte is the basic and the most common unit in the computer’s memory. A group of 8 bits is
called a byte. One byte is one character. A character can be a number, letter or symbol. Each
byte resides temporarily on the computer’s memory and this specific location is called an
address. i.e. 01011101, 11110110 01010110 etc
KILOBYTE (KB): This is equivalent to 210 =1,024 bytes.
MEGABYTE (MB): A megabyte is equivalent to 220 = 1,048,576 bytes
GIGABYTE (GB): A gigabyte is equivalent to 230 = 1,073,741824 bytes
TERABYTE (TB): A terabyte is equivalent to 240 = 1,099,511,627,780 bytes
PRESENTATION

WORD LENGTH:
A word is a group of fixed numbers of bytes which always varies from computer to computer but
is fixed for each computer. The length of a computer word is called a word length, which is in
the range of 1 byte to 64 bytes. It implies the number of bits which can be handled in a single
operation.
Double word – is made up of 2 words which is equal to 4 bytes (32 bits)
Quad word – is made up of 4 words i.e. 2 double words, which equals to 8 bytes (64 bits) etc.
Bit = 0 or 1
4 bits = I nibble
2 nibbles = 8 bit and 8 bit = 1 byte
1 byte = 8 bits
1 kilobyte (KB) =210= 1,024 bytes
1 megabyte (MB) = 210 x210 =220 = 1,048,576 bytes
1 gigabyte (GB) = 210 x210x210= 230 = 1,073,741,824 bytes
1terabyte (TB) = 210x210x210x210=240 = 1,099,511,627,780 bytes

Converts 2 kilobytes to byte

Solution
1 KB = 1024bytes
2 KB = 2(1024) bytes = 2048 bytes.
