We live in a technological world where information and communication technologies (ICT) are fundamental to most activities. Digital literacies are integral tools in the learning process, and have the potential to extend student learning capabilities, engaging them in understanding concepts and processes in areas of learning and facilitating change in learning, thinking and teaching.
At Koondrook Primary School using digital literacies as tools for learning enables students to:
- efficiently and effectively access digital information to assist with investigating issues, solving problems and decision making
- produce creative solutions to support learning and develop new understandings in areas of learning
- communicate, share and work collaboratively in local and global environments
- understand the legal, ethical and health and safety implications of using digital literacies and their responsibilities as users and developers
- develop new thinking and learning skills to support learning
- be creators rather than just consumers of digital technology
Tools we use:
- iPads
- MacBooks
- Ozobot Evo
- Beebots
- Probots
