What does interdisciplinary mean for Information and Communications Technology?
Information and Communications Technology (ICT) is one of four domains in the Interdisciplinary Learning strand of the Standards. The Interdisciplinary Learning strand focuses on ways of thinking, communicating, conceiving, and realising ideas and information. The knowledge, skills and behaviours in the ICT domain enable students to use ICT to access, process, manage and present information; to model and control events; to construct new understandings, and to communicate with others. As an interdisciplinary learning domain, ICT can be applied across all strands. For students this means applying ICT knowledge and skills to: • develop understanding of domain-specific knowledge and skills (ICT for visualising thinking dimension) • demonstrate understanding of domain-specific content and concepts (ICT for creating dimension) • share understanding of domain-specific knowledge and skills with known and unknown people (ICT for communicating dimension).
