ICT Training Workshop School-based program I.

RATIONALE

The Information and Communication Technology (ICT) curriculum provides a broad perspective on the nature of technology, how to use and apply a variety of technologies, and the impact of ICT on self and society. Students in VPTNHS will be encouraged to grapple with the complexities, as well as the advantages and disadvantages, of technologies in our lives and workplaces. The ICT curriculum is not intended to stand alone, but rather to be infused within core courses and programs. Technology is best learned within the context of applications. Activities, projects and problems that replicate real-life situations are effective resources for learning technology. Students will learn: that, although technology is often complex, it is simply "a way of doing things" about the impact of technologies in their lives and workplaces how to determine which processes, tools and techniques to use, and when to use them how to use and apply a variety of information and communication technologies to problem solving, decision making, inquiring and researching in the context of other subject matter. Technology will serve todays students wellin entry-level work and beyond, in further study and lifelong learning, and in their personal lives as inquisitive, reflective, discerning and caring citizens. Advanced technologies are more pervasive today than they have ever been, and their uses are expanding continually. ICT is significantly enhancing and altering human activity, and enabling us to live, work and think in ways that most of us never thought possible. Since technology has an increasingly significant impact, and such broad implications for everyone individuals, groups and entire nationsstudents must be prepared to understand, use and apply ICT in effective, efficient and ethical ways.
