.
ICT Outcomes:
Processes for Productivity
Students will need to know how to use technolgy to communicate and interact with others, create text, organize data and integrate applications.
Communicating, Enquiring, Decision Making and Problem Solving
Students will use technology to collaborate and in aid in inquiry expanding their competency, building off past knowledge and broadening their perspective. They will use a variety of technologies and assess information found while using multiple research techniques.
Students achieving these goals will be the ideal model of a student in a student-centered learning environment. They will have developed in knowledge, problem solving and competancy desired in the work world.
When using the ICT to help develop a lesson plan it can help teachers to find ideas to enhance the learning of students in a student-centered education.
Foundational Operations, Knowledge and Concepts
Students should understand the role and nature of techology in todays world and how to make responsilbe and ethical choices while using technology.
