An Equitable Curriculum for a Digital Age
Starkey, Louise
Curriculum Matters, v12 p29-45 2016
As the tenth anniversaries of "The New Zealand Curriculum" and "Te Marautanga o Aotearoa" approach it is timely to consider how we should prepare the next generation of New Zealanders for their digital future. In this article I explore what should be included in a curriculum if we would like all citizens of the future to be able to participate in a digital future. I draw on literature about equity in a digital age and argue that three areas of knowledge and skills should be included within a curriculum: discipline specific knowledge and skills, generic digital knowledge and capabilities, and how to participate within a digital world.
