📚 Code Tales series is designed to empower students to identify and explain key ethical principles and their application to emerging technologies through storytelling, creating digital artefacts, and unplugged activities. The pedagogy empowers students to gain Digital Literacy and learn meta-skills. An adventure of epic proportions that brings a unique confluence of Life skills and Technology rooted in Ethics.

🦉 What are meta-skills and why should students be learning about them?
Meta skills or meta competencies are higher-order cognitive skills such as Creativity, Self-awareness & Resilience that create adaptive learners and act as a key to unlock the development of other technical skills. So as students’ progress through their education, it is important to recognize and explore the development of these skills.

💻 Isn't Digital Literacy the same as Computer Literacy?
The three pillars of digital literacy include, (a) finding and consuming digital content, (b) creating digital content, and (c) the ability to share and communicate it effectively.
Students will create a digital portfolio showcasing their understanding of ethical principles and their application to emerging technologies.

In this book, Code Tales, Vol 1 : Honesty in Emerging Technologies, we focus on truthfulness in digital communications and the importance of credibility in online interactions. 🦸

Ethics are the rules that help us decide what is right and wrong. Just like we have rules for playing games, we need rules for using technology. In this learning strand, we will explore the concept of honesty in the digital age, relating it to the story of "The Fox and the Crow." This tale teaches us that lying, even online, can have serious consequences. As we explore social media and messaging apps, we will discover how important it is to be truthful in our digital interactions, how false information spreads online, and its potential consequences.

Tweens create Ethical Tale based games and animations on MIT Scratch3.0 coding platform, one of the most popular programs in primary schools on the National curriculum. To create the games in this book, children will need a desktop computer or a laptop. The games require a proper keyboard so will not work well on a tablet or iPad. It is recommended that children should be supervised when using the internet, especially when using a new website.

• Understand the importance of honesty in digital communication
