What is ICTL?
> Computer Literacy (1980s)
> Internet Literacy (library field)
> Digital Literacy (Paul Gilster, 1997)
> Fluency with Information Technology or FiTness (National Research Council, 1999)
• Current (or “contemporary”) computer skills
• Foundational concepts
• Cognitive and problem-solving abilities
> OECD PISA Study, e-skills (UK), MEXT (Japan), US state and international standards
> Global informal consensus regarding what defines ICTL

Defining ICTL – The IC3 Standard
> Literature review
> Development of examination blueprints by subject-matter experts (SMEs) under the direction of a psychometrician specializing in IT certification exam development
> Review of blueprint by Global Digital Literacy Council
> Updated blueprints reviewed/content validated by hundreds of subject-matter experts
> Content validation exam blueprints used as the basis for:
• Exam development
• Curriculum – Provided to publishers (including Course)

> Must pass three examinations (Computing Fundamentals, Key Applications, Living Online)
> 3-4 domains/45 questions for each 45 minute exam
> Performance based items (measuring skills) and linear items (measuring knowledge) in each exam
> Automatically scored
> Criterion Validated
> Translated into multiple languages

Your Course: The Challenges
• Students enter the course with varying levels of computer expertise
• Students have different learning styles
• Many students have not yet developed effective college-level learning skills
• Many students don’t like to read
• For some students English is a second language
![Page 15: Digital Literacy: Teaching a New IC 3 Global Standard](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649dac5503460f94a9b585/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The Bar
Regardless of the diverse “input,” at the end of the course all students are expected to pass over a “bar” labeled “What every college educated person should know about computers.”
