Digital literacy or computer science: Where do information technology related primary education models focus on?
Stefan Pasterk, Andreas Bollin · 2017
The present deep impact of information technology on society results in an increasing number of countries starting to introduce information technology related topics even in primary schools. However, the resulting curricula, educational standards and competence models differ in several aspects like in their structure or competence focus, making them hard to assess and to compare. This contribution presents a graph-based approach that eases the comparison and that can be used to exemplify different focal points easily. In order to do so, we looked at several educational models and used a graph-based representation form to display the emphasis on either Digital Literacy and/or Computer Science concepts.
