Everyone learns from everyone.
The Summer Institute in Digital Literacy at the University of Rhode Island is the nation’s premier professional development program in digital literacy. For 2023, the program was a week-long interdisciplinary gathering designed especially for educators, librarians, and digital media professionals from around the world who work in K-12 schools or higher education contexts.
Join us in 2025 as we envision new ways to build relationships and take a deep dive into hands-on, minds-on experiences that emphasize inquiry, collaboration, creation, and learning. Reflective walking tours through the city and evening social events across the week will ensure we make the most of our time together.
