I received an enquiry today asking for an introductory unit that delivered basic ICT skills covering such things as computer skills, Internet skills and learning skills. When I checked through the units available, there were units on each of these areas but few that covered more than one of them, and none that covered them all. That made me think that it might be a good idea to create a 21st Century version of
Introduction to Computers, which some of you may remember from the 1990s as the most popular unit in SQA's catelogue.
I had a discussion with the enquirer and the following list of skills emerged:
- basic hardware skills (such as formatting a memory card)
- basic software skills (such as copying data)
- basic Internet skills (such as searching)
- basic safety skills (such as preventing online fraud)
- basic learning skills (such as researching online)
- basic information literacy skills (such as checking sources)
- basic social networking skills (such as protecting privacy).
What do you think? I've created a poll to gauge your views. Is this list of skills on the right lines?
