Project "I Curriculum: The knowledge and Information skills needed for living in the digital age" The objective of this proposal is to establish a European framework for defining information skills and a curriculum appropriate for living and learning in the digital age: To identify the key metaskills and metaknowledge needed for living in the digital age in detail. To explore digital tools and artifacts and pedagogic practices that can lead to the development of broad digital literacy. To develop a framework for the description of curricula in terms of the Information/metaknowledge they encompass. To develop curriculum in information technology that may have more appeal to young women. To disseminate findings to policy makers, teachers and other educators and the producers of digital resources. We will work across the age range, as is appropriate to each partner including primary, secondary and vocational education learners. Outputs will be Guidelines for curriculum action (reform, the design of teaching schemes or individual learning activities). These guidelines will be supported by Replicable exemplar activities across curricular contexts which explicitly develop metaskills and metaknowledge in the design and development of modelling activities and communicative multimedia that are capable of being taught within the framework of education systems in Member States. These case studies and guidelines will also be re-framed as professional development of teachers. Dissemination activities: Seminars for stakeholders, A face to face and video-streamed symposium with the capability of synchronous and asynchronous participation over the internet. Recommendations for policy and practice (on paper and web) and a range of networking activities. PROGRAMME: EUROPEAN COMMISSION, SOCRATES-MINERVA, 2002 (100783-CP-1-2002-1-GR-MINERVA-M) COORDINATION:
