Computing and ICT Literacy)



What is Literacy?



Literacy is the ability to identify, understand, interpret,

create, communicate, compute and use printed and 

written materials associated with varying contexts. 

Literacy involves a continuum of learning to enable an 

individual to achieve his or her goals, to develop his or

her knowledge and potential, and to participate fully in

 the wider society.



The meaning of literacy evolves with the times. Literacy is

not only about reading, writing, listening, speaking, 

viewing and representing. It is also about developing 

literacy with information and communication technology 

(ICT).



Sustainability | Free Full-Text | ICT Skills of University Students from  the Faculty of Sport and Physical Education during the COVID-19 Pandemic




The information and communication technology (ICT)

literacy describes a learner’s ability to “adopt, adapt and

use digital devices, applications and services” (JISC, 

2014). This refers to a learner’s ability to navigate the 

technical requirements of being an online learner.


Three main questions guided the author in the writing of

this chapter: Is there the need for a widespread and in-

depth ICT literacy in mankind? What has to be meant for

ICT literacy? And are there special problems in students’

learning of ICT topics? And last but not least: How can 

ICTs themselves improve teachers’ work and students’ 

learning on ICTs?

 


ICT and STEM




What is Information and 


Communication Technology (ICT)?




Information and Communication Technology (ICT) include

computers, laptops, digital cameras, video cameras, digital

microscopes, scanners, cell phones, electronic games, digital

audio devices, global positioning systems, electronic

whiteboards, the Internet, et cetera. ICTs in the classroom will

continue to evolve as new technologies emerge over time.



What is Literacy with ICT?



Literacy with Information and Communication Technology 

(LwICT) means thinking critically and creatively, about 

information and about communication, as citizens of the 

global community, while using ICT safely, responsibly

and ethically.


 



ICT literacy


ICT literacy refers to the ability to effectively access, use, 

and manage information and communication technology. 

It encompasses a range of skills needed to navigate digital 

environments, including:



Technical Skills:

 

Understanding how to operate computers, software, and 

other technology tools.





Information Skills:


The ability to find, evaluate, and use information from 

various sources, including the internet, databases, and 

digital libraries.




Communication Skills:


Using technology-based communication tools (like email, 

social media, and video conferencing) to share information 

and collaborate with others.




Critical Thinking:


Analyzing and assessing information for credibility and 

relevance, and making informed decisions based on that 

analysis.




Digital Citizenship:


 Understanding ethical considerations and responsibilities

 in a digital environment, including issues like privacy, 

security, and cyberbullying.




Creativity:


 Using ICT tools to create new content, whether through 

writing, multimedia productions, or other forms of digital 

expression.




ICT literacy is increasingly important in many areas,

 including education, the workplace, and daily life, as 

technology continues to evolve and play a central role in 

communication and information dissemination.

The MOOC embraces ICT literacy


The MOOC embraces ICT literacy, as the course itself is

online. Learners are required to be able to use a computer,

navigate the Canvas LMS and the course site, understand

how to post in discussion forums, access and complete the

online activities and open media such as the video

introductions in each module and a few supplementary

slideshows.



The MOOC does not assume that all learners

had strong ICT skills from the beginning, and provides a

number of different resources and detailed instructions that

learners could access if they need guidance.



These include:


1-Resources to learn how to navigate the LMS, including a

 video overview of the course interface, instructions on how

 you can communicate with your instructor, details on how

to update your profile and change notification settings, and

a link to a full Canvas guide.



2-Information on computer basics, including using your

mouse, working with Windows, common computer

programs and apps, working with files and folders, and

keyboard shortcuts.



3-Information on internet basics, such as explaining the

internet browser, conducting an internet search,

downloading files from the web, setting up an email

account, an introduction to cloud computing and how to

make sure your computer is safe from viruses and spyware.



4-Clear instructions for how to use the technical tools in

completing the discussion posts and learning activities (i.e.

“to make a new post, click the Reply area directly below”;

“notice the icons located at the bottom of the box which

allow for audio, video, photos and attachments.”)


 


Fairley House :: Computing, ICT and Media




How do Students Develop ICT Literacy?



Literate students support their critical and creative thinking

 about textual, numerical, visual, and aural information as

they choose and use ICT, safely, responsibly and ethically.

 They develop this literacy across the curriculum, through

 inquiry, as they


  • question and plan


  • gather and make sense


  • produce to show understanding


  • communicate


  • reflect on their learning



What is a Developmental Learning Continuum?



A developmental learning continuum is an assessment

tool for based on teacher observations. It describes what

teachers see and hear students doing, as they

demonstrate their literacy. Many teachers already use

Continues for assessing learning in reading, writing

and numeracy.



What is the Developmental Continuum for Literacy

with ICT Across the Curriculum?



The Developmental Continuum for Literacy with ICT

paints a picture of how students develop their critical and

creative thinking, in curricular context as they use ICT

safely, responsibly and ethically.



Why Develop a Continuum?



1-The Developmental Continuum for Literacy with ICT is

congruent with and infused with existing concepts

across the curriculum; ICT is not a separate “curriculum”

in K–12,



2-The focus is on what students can do; learners of any

 age are able to find themselves on the continuum, from

novices to experts, from pre-K students to Senior Years

students and beyond.


3-Continuums are focused on the student; the

Developmental Continuum for Literacy with ICT provides

 a vehicle for students to self-assess and set goals for

their learning.

Aspects of the ICT literacy:


One aspect of the ICT literacy that is missing from the

MOOC is information related to privacy, security, and

safety. The way the course instructors describe various

digital tools, as well as their encouragement of blogging

and social media use for the development of a personal

network, presents the online world as a bit of a utopia,

where nothing can go wrong. The course lacks any

content teaching users about how to protect their data

online, considerations for what type of content you post

online and where, how to evaluate a digital tool from a

privacy lens, etc.
