[Background] [Audience] [Programme]
Background
There is considerable interest in embedding ICT with other skills for life subjects in order to assist learners to achieve both standards (i.e. ICT with literacy and ICT with numeracy). ICT is a powerful motivator for many hard to reach learners so that linking the subjects will encourage many learners to participate.
The ICT Skills for Life Workshop Programme has been developed to raise awareness of the distinctive ways in which e-learning techniques and content can be applied to literacy and numeracy areas. These workshops will focus on topics and subjects that are also supported with materials procured by the Department for Innovation, Universities and Skills (DIUS).
The ICT Skills for Life Workshops will:
 | investigate how ICT as a Skill for Life can be embedded into literacy and numeracy to motivate and engage learners |
| explore new resources available to assist the delivery of ICT and literacy; and ICT and numeracy so that learners will be able to develop both sets of skills |
The workshops will last for one day and participants will attend both literacy and numeracy workshops.
Audience
This workshop programme will target skills for life managers, tutors, professional teacher developers, intermediaries and other enablers so that information and materials will be cascaded to the wider field of tutors. The materials will also be considered for use in ESOL.
If you fall into the above categories and wish to explore how ICT can be embedded in literacy and numeracy
…then you are eligible to attend these events and for which participation is FREE!
You will need to have basic ICT skills, knowledge of literacy and numeracy.
