<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>I understand that there will be a scope
and sequence developed for ICT (content and achievement standards). How it will
appear in the curriculum documents is still under consideration. For example,
in the current four study areas being developed, it is possible that in some
instances ICT may actually be embedded in the content of these studies e.g. use
ICT to represent data in graph form (in maths); in other instances the ICT
content may be illustrated through the content elaborations (examples) in each
of these studies. How the rest will be handled, I’m not certain. The good
news is that at the moment ICT, like literacy and numeracy, are high on ACARA’s
agenda for development.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Just wondering whether anyone has been invited to look at the proposed new<br>
national curriculum and if so, what impact will that have on ICT type<br>
subjects?<br>
