For instance, ICT competence is mentioned as a one of the broad- based competencies, and a computer programming course has been introduced in a curriculum starting in 2016 (Vahtivuori-Hänninen, Halinen, Niemi, Lavonen, & Lipponen, 2014). keywords: competence; ict; ict competence; school; style; support; teachers; teaching; technology; technostress; use cache: seminar-2281.pdf plain text: seminar-2281.txt item: #2 of 201 id: seminar-2297 author: Kania-Lundholm, Magdalena; Torres, Sandra title: Older active users of ICTs make sense of their engagement date: 2017-05-01 words: 8754 flesch: 62 summary: By drawing attention to a group of older people who are actively involved with ICTs, this article has corroborated some of the findings that research on older ICT users has highlighted. Thus, although the debate on the digital divide nowadays takes for granted that we must understand older people’s ICT usage as practices that are socially shaped and locally situated, research that specifically looks at the ways in which older ICT users make sense of their use is still very limited. keywords: digital; divide; ict; icts; journal; media; people; sense; technologies; usage; users cache: seminar-2297.pdf plain text: seminar-2297.txt item: #3 of 201 id: seminar-2304 author: None title: Title date: None words: 6614 flesch: 53 summary: More importantly, the variation between individuals in ICT skill items was extensive and in all likelihood more influential than the gender difference as such.

Outcomes for Students, Teachers, and Companies Following the original idea of a pedagogical model (Joyce & Weil, 1980), students are expected to gain domain-specific and generic knowledge and skills.

This demands critical reflection on the conceptualization of the learner, the perceived competencies needed to actively participate in a data society and the seemingly 'neutrality’ of the practice in itself, which I refer to as the (re)politicization of data literacy. keywords: data; data literacy; datafication; journal; learning; literacy; media; need; power; practice; society; technology cache: seminar-4280.pdf plain text: seminar-4280.txt item: #185 of 201 id: seminar-4281 author: Giró Gràcia, Xavier; Sancho-Gil , Juana M. title: Artificial Intelligence in Education: Big Data, Black Boxes, and Technological Solutionism date: 2021-08-31 words: 8318 flesch: 47 summary: We urgently need a broad and in-depth interdisciplinary research initiative that can provide a clear picture of the benefits and harms of the development and use of newer digital technologies in education.
