Moraitis School recently hosted a successful DigiGap Ready, Steady, Go! workshop, engaging 37 enthusiastic students from upper primary and lower secondary grades in hands-on activities aimed at bridging the digital generation gap and strengthening digital competence.
Part of the Erasmus+ DigiGap project, the workshop encouraged students to become Digital Change Agents who can support their families and wider communities in navigating digital technologies. Throughout the session, participants explored topics such as digital generational divides, essential pedagogical skills, and the importance of empathy and patience when teaching others. 
Students used tools like Canva for creative design and experimented with Microsoft Copilot as a digital assistant to help them build their own teaching plans. They also conducted interview-style questionnaires to better understand the digital learning needs of their parents and other adults at home. 
Feedback from the young participants was overwhelmingly positive. Many shared that the experience gave them a new appreciation for what it takes to teach someone else (especially an adult) and highlighted the value of clear communication, empathy, and step-by-step guidance.
Organised by the Centre for Research, Educational Development, Innovation and Technology (CREDIT) at Moraitis School, the workshop strengthened not only digital skills but also students’ confidence to help increase digital autonomy within their families.
