Take 1 Step
Take 1 Step (#T1Step) is a regional campaign to raise digital skills across the Shannon Consortium.
Digital Champions
At the core of the project, was the recruitment of staff as Digital Champions in each of the partner institutes. These staff have become champions for the improvement of digital literacy skills within their academic discipline, their department and ultimately across the Southern Cluster. The project documents the journey these champions took and provides a map for others who wish to follow in their footsteps.
