I came across the SQA Digital Literacy page when I was looking for idea for contextualising numeracy for ICT students. I am looking for resources and ideas for SCQF Level 5. The Digital Numeracy is at Level 3. There are Digital Numeracy Student Notes and Specification. There is an ASP in SQA Secure (password needed). The assessment is a bit disappointing. Quality issues have been missed eg the abbreviation for gram is G, capacity is in mls etc. The NAB is still pretty general rather than related to IT.
The unit (F1L1 09) was published in 2007 just before the 'refreshing' of Core Skills. Interestingly some of the assessment can be 'open book'. It is certainly worth considering.
This Blog was written for Numeracy Tutors or anyone else who is thinking of using Blogs to support students. It will show how Blogging was used in practice in Clydebank College to support Numeracy, Maths and Access to Nursing Students. I also use the site to experiment.
