Learn

Welcome to the core of what IT elementary school is, and aspires to be; a safe and supportive place where you can learn.

Your personal learning journey may be about acquiring specific knowledge or new skills, or it might be a desire for greater awareness of broad IT and Digital themes, technologies, and industry news. Whether you are looking for a simple definition, a ‘how to’ guide, a confidence boost, or deeper multi-media learning, this is the place to become more connected and tech smarter!

A little bit of history …

This website started its life in 2015 as a Tech blog, evolving to include bite-sized modules (IT elements), and a glossary of IT terms. That was, and is, phase 1 – available now as a searchable repository of free learning material and insights.

(Ed. You can find out bit more about the background and origin story behind the school here)

… and where we are going

With the official launch of IT elementary school in early 2021 and a round of fund-raising we will embark on an ambitious programme of acquiring and producing new services, features, and content. Let me digress, content, is an IT/web term for all the valuable stuff online, the words, pictures, videos, apps, games etc. etc.

As mentioned above, our ‘day 1’ content comprises these types:

• IT elements
• Blog posts
• Glossary entries
• (Certificate & Badge templates)

And coming down the track, subject to planning (product road map), resourcing, and a few other factors:

• Social Media integration
• Micro-blog posts
• News items
• School plan (Curriculum), containing Rooms
  • Rooms (Syllabus/Course indexes) containing Modules
• Modules (Topic/Lesson) including Sub-Lessons
  • Lessons
    • Lesson plan
    • Sub-lessons (learning objectives)
    • Exercise/practice
    • Test
  • Video lesson
  • Animated lesson
  • Audio lesson/podcast
  • eBook
• Branded merchandise
• (Personal Learning objectives – what do you ‘need’ or ‘want’ to know about, or maybe you would like some suggestions?)
• (Personal education framework template – ‘Your Course’ a personalised pathway)

So, busy and exciting times! We’re looking forward to working with you to make tech easier  for everyone.
