Welcome to the new S.U.R.E. courseware on digital media and information literacy, digital safety and digital wellness!

This new courseware aims to equip our students with essential knowledge and skills to navigate the complex information landscape in today’s digital age. S.U.R.E. stands for Source, Understand, Research and Evaluate, which are key concepts that will be covered in the first part of the courseware under “Information Literacy”.

To facilitate different learning styles, the educational resources cover a range of materials in different formats, including videos, case studies, infographics and presentation slides. These materials can be used in blended learning approach, allowing students to work at their own pace and access them any time or facilitated by teachers in the classroom.

Teachers are welcome to contact us at sure@nlb.gov.sg if you have queries on the new courseware as well as for suggested answers to the various activities in each module.
