Technological Literacy
Technology literacy refers to a familiarity with digital information and devices, increasingly essential in a modern learning environment. Technology literacy is similar to digital literacy, in that an individual who is technologically or digitally literate is well-versed in thinking critically and communicating by utilizing technology.
Importance of Technology literacy :
Technology literacy is one component of being a digital citizen - a person who is responsible for how they utilize technology to interact with the world around them.
Technology allows people to interact and communicate with
family and friends on a regular basis due to the "busy constraints"
of today's world.
Not only do white-collar jobs require digital literacy in
the use of media to present, record, and analyze data, but so do blue-collar
jobs who are looking for a way to increase productivity and analyze the market
trends, along with increase job safety.

International Mother Language Day
The
idea to celebrate International Mother Language Day was the initiative of
Bangladesh. It was approved at the 1999 UNESCO General Conference and has been
observed throughout the world since 2000.
UNESCO believes in the importance of cultural and linguistic diversity for sustainable societies. It is within its mandate for peace that it works to preserve the differences in cultures and languages that foster tolerance and respect for others.
Linguistic diversity(link is external) is increasingly threatened as more and more languages disappear. Globally 40 per cent of the population does not have access to an education in a language they speak or understand. Nevertheless, progress is being made in mother tongue-based multilingual education with growing understanding of its importance, particularly in early schooling, and more commitment to its development in public life.
Multilingual
and multicultural societies exist through their languages which transmit and
preserve traditional knowledge and cultures in a sustainable way.

PLASTIC IN THE OCEAN
PLASTIC WASTE IS FLOODING OUR OCEANS. IT'S NOW MORE
IMPORTANT THAN EVER TO REDUCE OUR PLASTIC FOOTPRINT WORLDWIDE.
Twenty eighteen was the year of the plastic straw. News
segments, think pieces, hot takes, and social media posts declared plastic
straws public enemy number one. The story had everything: a kid on a mission
against the corporate world, a gut-wrenching video of a sea turtle with a straw
stuck in its nose, an easy-to-understand and ubiquitous problem. We also had a
clear resolution requiring hardly any sacrifice: To save the environment, we
just had to stop using plastic straws.

cows. Her grand-mother taught her how to cook and make quilts.

HONORARY STAMP On February 4, 2013 (100 years after Rosa was born), the U.S. Postal Service revealed a commemorative stamp honoring Rosa.

Rosa’s grandparents also taught her about racism. In the
American South, laws kept Black people separate from white people. Black people
had to use separate entrances, drink from separate fountains, and go to
separate schools and hospitals. Sometimes, groups of white men attacked Black
people. They set fire to Black homes, churches, and schools. Rosa’s grandfather
had to board up the family’s windows so no one could break in. Rosa learned to
be brave.
When Rosa was 6, she went to the elementary school for
Black children in Pine Level. Rosa and her classmates had to walk to school, no
matter how far away they lived. White children rode a school bus. Sometimes,
white children threw things at Rosa and her friends from the bus.
Pine Level had no junior high or high school for Black
children, so Rosa’s mother sent her to a school in Montgomery. All the girls
there were Black. The teachers were white. Rosa had always obeyed the rules and
took care to avoid trouble. But one day, she was walking along the street and a
white boy threatened her. Rosa threatened him back. The boy’s mother was upset
and talked about having Rosa put in jail. Luckily, that didn’t happen.
As Rosa grew up, she made the decision to not let racism
make her act out in anger ever again. Still, she knew that things weren’t fair,
and it bothered her.
Rosa Refuses
In 1955, Rosa Parks was arrested for sitting on a bus. As
in many cities in the South, the buses in Montgomery, Alabama, were segregated.
Black people had to sit at the back. If a white person wanted to sit, a Black
person had to give up his or her seat. On December 1, Rosa refused to get up.
She was arrested. Many claimed Rosa was just tired. But she was a member of the
National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). It was a
deliberate protest.
Her arrest caused a bus boycott in Montgomery. The boycott
lasted for more than a year. A federal court and the Supreme Court ruled
against segregated buses. Rosa’s actions inspired many other battles against
unfair laws.
