Input to IPPN’s submission re. the DE Digital Strategy for Schools
- Published: 15 April 2021
The DE has asked education stakeholders to make submissions by early May in relation to its Digital Strategy. Given all the work schools have done in relation to online learning, there is an additional wealth of expertise among school leaders as to the needs of schools, that can inform a new Digital Strategy for Schools. The current strategy for 2015-2020 may be a helpful reference. Multi-annual funding, teacher and leader CPD, curricular resources and equity of access are among the items to be considered.
The submission is to be made online and is to be structured as follows. Please send your input for the submission by email to geraldine.darcy@ippn.ie by Friday 23 April. It would be very much appreciated.
- Please outline your observations and comments on how the existing Digital Strategy for Schools 2015-2020 has supported the integration of digital technologies into teaching, learning and assessment practices in schools
- From your understanding of the current Digital Strategy for Schools 2015-2020, what challenges have school faced in the integration of digital technologies into teaching, learning and assessment practices?
- Your comments and observations on the key areas and priorities that should be addressed in the development of the new Digital Strategy for Schools.
