Welcome to the Big Tent Digital Literacy Initiative!

The Big Tent Digital Literacy Initiative is a campus wide initiative to support organizations, faculty, staff, and students in the areas of digital literacy, creativity, and innovation. Although it is in its infancy, the future is bright. Big Tent intends to host and/or sponsor workshops and events partnered with industry sponsors to promote digital literacy with their hardware and software. 

The core tenants of the initiative are Digital Literacy, Teaching, Learning, Design, Inquiry, and Creative Content. Big Tent wants to help teachers of all ranks become more familiar with the capabilities of different digital tools which can then promote innovation in the classroom, research, and problem solving.

Graduate students, faculty, and staff create graphic presentations and modules to help facilitate professional development and learning on campus.

Students compose digital masterpieces of many varieties. These student examples demonstrate the creative power our students have when encouraged to think creatively.

Graphic communication and other affiliate programs create a myriad of different types of work revolving around athletics.

The "Sparking Creativity Faculty Workshops" hosted by the Watt Family Innovation Center in partnership with Clemson Computing and Information Technology, Creative Inquiry, and Adobe showed faculty the basics and potential of creative software and how to implement multimodal projects in their classrooms.
