Commonwealth Computer Navigator's Certificate/Milestone 3

TARGET DATE: 28 February 2007

Curriculum Mapping

The SWOT analysis idea was replaced with a Curriculum Mapping exercise. The development group felt that a SWOT analysis was too elaborate for our needs.

• Mapping Open ICDL to ICDL curriculum

Tasks

• Desktop review of the strengths & weaknesses of the existing Open ICDL materials
• Consulting with graduates and developers of the Open ICDL
• Mapping the Open ICDL Materials to the ICDL curriculum (Version 4) to identify any gaps

Deliverables for Milestone 3

1. Confirmation that the Open ICDL materials meet the curriculum specifications of the ICDL Curriculum by developing a page that links each module to the Curriculum specifications
2. Inventory of additional free content that could be used for the project. Each item to be annotated with a list of advantages and disadvantages
