What is Literacy?
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.
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.”)
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?
Technology literacy
Today we need technology that is more intelligent,
more connected, and
more sustainable than ever
before—technology that can truly transform what
is possible in homes, businesses, and cities
across the globe.
That means blurring the lines between the physical
and the virtual, bringing
raw computing power to
every aspect of our lives, and putting
comprehensive solutions and services first. All
while finding ways to increase sustainability in
our production.
Technology literacy
Definition:
It
is a means of teaching that attracts all the senses
of the learner
comfortably and attractively. They are
advanced teaching aids that
contribute to a great
extent in facilitating the process of learning
inside
the classrooms. It presents the lesson through
hearing, motion and visual means.
Educational
technology is the use of both physical
hardware and educational theoretic. It encompasses
several domains including learning theory, computer-
based training, online learning, and where
mobile
technologies are used, m-learning.
Accordingly, there are several discrete aspects to
describing the intellectual and technical development
of educational technology:
1-Educational technology as the theory and practice
of educational approaches to learning.
2-Educational
technology as technical tools and
media that assist in the communication of knowledge,
and its development and exchange.
3-Educational
technology for learning management
system (LMS), such as tools for
student and
curriculum management, and education
management information systems (EMIS).
4-Educational
technology itself as an educational
subject; such courses may be called
"Computer
Studies" or "Information and communication tech
Authentic inclusion and accessibility

the lives of students. From assistive
technology and digital inclusion to
