During the Technology Literacy course, participants were given an opportunity to review the specific objectives of the National ICT Policy/Strategy Document, list the objectives that should be addressed within the classroom setting and brainstorm three classroom practices that would support the objectives. In this unit participants will build on this knowledge by developing a carefully planned learning activity that aligns to the learning outcomes of the relevant ‘Word Processing’ section of the Information Technology Curriculum Guide for either grade 7, 8 or 9.
Participants should be divided into groups consisting of no more than 4 members. The team members in each group should be allocated a particular teaching level . Each group will require the Information Technology curriculum statement/guide from your particular country. If you are unable to get a copy of the curriculum statements/guide for your country, you can make use of ones from Guyana that are available on this CD.
Please note that Task 3 is a recommended Portfolio Task and it is recommended you collect the presentations in for evaluation. A marking memo is available here.
