4. E-Learning in the curriculum a new thing?
http://bit.ly/DAKC21
e-Learning can contribute
directly to the
development of all these
competencies, and
increasingly these
competencies are applied
in ICT-rich contexts for all
students.
Key competencies are the
capabilities people need in
order to live, learn work
and contribute as active
members of their
communities.
Competencies are more
complex than skills…

“…the typical knowledge
and skills in the areas of
reading, writing, and
arithmetic (the three Rs)
are no longer sufficient…”
ritical thinking and problem solving skills
ommunication skills
ollaboration skills
reativity and innovation skills
10. E-Learning and those Key Competencies
Thinking is about using creative, critical and metacognitive
processes to make sense of information, experiences and ideas
Students who manage themselves are enterprising,
resourceful, reliable and resilient. …They have
strategies to meet challenges
By working effectively together, they can come
up with new approaches, ideas and ways of
thinking.
Using language, symbols and texts is about working with and making meaning of the
codes in which knowledge is expressed. …Students who are competent users of
language, symbols and texts can interpret and use words, number, images, movement,
metaphor and technologies in a range of contexts.

“Engaging Students means getting kids excited about our content, interests and
curricula.” Empowering students “means giving kids the knowledge and skills to pursue
their passions, interests and future.” Bill Ferrier

18. Where does technology fit in all of this?
“Learning is creation, not consumption.
Knowledge is not something that a learner
absorbs, but something a learner creates.”
