Information Technology Across Careers (ITAC) Phase III

With community colleges across the country, EDC is developing a common curricular framework for teaching basic information technology (core) applications in career and academic programs at community and technical colleges. Project resources include innovative approaches to instruction and assessment, including "Rubrics to Assess Basic IT User Skills," lesson templates that interconnect the use of the "IT Core Applications" with program content for eight of the most commonly used IT applications, and a library of problem-based scenarios for each of the clusters/program areas. This work builds on two earlier ITAC grants.
