In an innovative step towards enhancing student engagement and digital literacy, Class Intercom has unveiled its new program, the Content Generation Microcredentials. This program is designed to empower students and social media users with the fundamental skills necessary for effective digital storytelling and responsible online practices. Announced during the organization’s sixth annual Content Generation Workshop, the initiative aims to prepare young individuals for real-world scenarios while providing them with a pathway to gain recognition for their accomplishments in various educational subjects. The microcredentials have been developed through collaboration between Class Intercom and professionals in education, ensuring they align with current pedagogical standards and the needs of today’s digital landscape. Students will have access to a series of self-paced modules that integrate reflection throughout learning, allowing for a more personalized educational experience. Each module emphasizes practical application through authentic assessments, culminating in awards that students can proudly display on their digital portfolios, resumes, and even college applications. The inaugural courses offered through this program include: Telling Your School's Story - An exploration of how to communicate effectively about school experiences. Strategic Storytelling in Social Media - A focus on how to leverage platform-specific storytelling techniques to engage audiences. Skill Building for School Social Media Teams - A hands-on approach to equip students with the skills necessary for managing school social media operations. Amplifying Student Voice - Encouraging leadership and representation in school social media practices. * Building Safe, Smart School Communicators - A course designed to promote digital citizenship and responsible content creation. Class Intercom President Dr. Jill Johnson commented, "Microcredentials provide students with the ability to acquire practical communication skills applicable in various scenarios—whether they are posting on school social media platforms or embarking on careers in digital media. Moreover, this program supports schools in empowering students to take control of their narratives, while advocating for the importance of ethical content production." Currently available for Class Intercom users, this microcredentialing initiative offers schools a strategic method to foster student development. It enhances digital citizenship curriculums and facilitates the creation of positive, student-driven content. Schools that adopt this program will be able to transform the way they integrate technology and media literacy into their educational approach, preparing students for their roles as thoughtful and responsible participants in the digital age.
