This subject aims to encourage students to develop a broad knowledge of the uses of computers in the school environment and for their own productivity. Students gain an understanding of basic strategies in using computers in an educational setting and enhance their skills in the use of application software. Students consider applications in the key learning areas and identify the strengths and weaknesses of computer-mediated learning for children. The content focuses on productivity software for education (e.g. word processing, spreadsheets and presentation software) and the use of multimedia and the Internet to enhance meaningful learning.
