An IFIP consultation - from your experience and endeavours on digital inclusive education - your help is needed please!

IFIP Task Force : ‘Sustaining relevant digital inclusive education for young people (5-18 years of age)’

Consultation 

The IFIP Task Force on ‘Sustaining relevant digital inclusive education for young people (5-18 years of age)’ is asking for your support through this international consultation. The IFIP Task Force has identified five key factors that evidence indicates are important and need to be addressed and supported if relevant digital inclusive education for young people is to be sustained. These factors are:

  1. Aspiration
  2. Diversity, inclusion, the digital divide and the under-represented
  3. Computational thinking and its links to problem-solving
  4. Developing teacher practices
  5. Short- and long-term plans and actions

We would like to know of actions that have been implemented and considered successful, and those that have failed, in your country, nation, region, or locality, which are related to each of these five factors.

If you know of other colleagues and other organisations who might be able to offer us some examples, please do distribute to them. We look forward to receiving and being able to quote examples sent in our presentations and final report.

Please do let us know of practices and successes, by giving us some brief answers here:

  • Your name:
  • Affiliation:
  • The country, nation, regional or local organisation that has been responsible for the action:
  • The factor the action has addressed or supported:
  • A brief description of the action, its duration, and its outcome:

These are the questions we would like to address (but in response do please just pick those that are relevant and ignore the others):

Key consultation questions:

  • What aspirational methods have either national, regional or local organisations used that have successfully inspired young people to continue to engage with digital education or digital employment?
