ImpactEd founded the Canterbury Kāhui Ako Digital Project to meet a need in digital technologies education. Their mission: To create a more sustainable approach to implementing Digital Technologies across the curriculum. Find out how this project came about and how it has impacted schools in the Canterbury region.
Digital technologies are a strong focus in education, from the Ministry of Education down to each individual school, and the Digital Technologies curriculum has been created to prepare students for their future. New Zealand’s Ministry of Education describes the purpose of the Digital Technologies curriculum as, “equipping children and young people with the skills and knowledge to participate, create and thrive whatever pathway they choose to take.” This fundamental curriculum is an ongoing piece of work, with ImpactEd advising on and championing the cause.
