What Does Digital Literacy Really Mean for Educators? with Jacqueline Aguilera

Jacqueline Aguilera, adult educator and digital equity advocate, joins Laura to explore how teachers can embed digital literacy into their lessons without needing separate “computer classes.” In this episode, Jacqueline shares practical tips for building digital skills with limited tech, discusses the impact of the digital divide in Texas, and encourages teachers to focus on what learners already use in their daily lives.


Watch with closed captions.


KEY TALKING POINTS

  1. Silo Busting in Education: Moving beyond subject-specific instruction to integrate real-world digital skills into all areas of teaching.
  2. Digital Equity in Texas: Infrastructure, device quality, and access vary widely—even within cities—impacting learners’ experiences.
  3. Teaching with What Learners Have: From smartphones to QR codes, using everyday tech to develop essential digital skills.
  4. Creating a Learner-Driven Curriculum: Encouraging students to bring in examples from their environment and build personal connections to digital literacy.
  5. Empowering Educators: Why teachers don’t need to know everything about tech—and how curiosity can be a superpower in the classroom.
