Information and Communications Technology Assessment Map – Sample at 1.25
Completing a simple report
Context
Students were asked to create a new file in MS Word and key a brief report on what they had learnt about water. They were required to make this report colourful as it was going to be displayed on a board for other students to read. Students were required to save their file using their name in the classroom folder.
The elements of the Information and Communications Technology Level 2 standard addressed by the task are:
(Students) manipulate text, images and numeric data to create simple information products for specific audiences.
(Students) save new files using a naming system that is meaningful to them.
Samples
The following work samples, and the related ICT 1.25 progression point examples, illustrate the kinds of responses that students produce as they progress towards Level 2 standard.
