Information and Communications Technology (ICT) has been developed to become an
integral part of everyday life. The EDU ICT curriculum and Cambridge ICT Starters
have been designed as an introduction to the world of ICT. The syllabus provides
a framework in which ICT skills and knowledge can be acquired and developed in an
environment tailored to particular age groups and surroundings.
Cambridge ICT Starters is designed to introduce students, within Primary and Lower
Secondary Education, to the key ICT applications they need to acquire that literacy
and to understand the impact of technology on our daily lives.
The syllabus provides a curriculum framework in which ICT competence can be developed.
Modules can be delivered according to the needs of each learning situation and age
of the students across the curriculum or as a separate course of study.
Students use ICT to communicate, handle information, model and control. They develop
key ICT skills in a range of applications including word processing, computer graphics,
databases, spreadsheets, email, internet, presentations, video, animation and web
authoring. Through Cambridge ICT Starters, students learn ICT practical skills;
also they learn to consider wider issues such as adapting their work according to
the audience and internet safety. The qualification offers a structured scheme of
assessment, operating at three levels; 1)
Initial Steps
2)
Next Steps
3)
On Track.
At each level, a Cambridge ICT Starters Stage 1 or Full Certificate is available.
