I wonder if the way the curriculum is developing in Scotland might offer so=
me points to consider where the whole 3 - 18 curriculum has been re-designe=
d to place the learner at the centre.

The emphasis is on the child developing four capacities: Confident Individu=
als, Effective Contributors, Responsible Citizens and Successful Learners w=
ith the curriculum held in eight curricular areas within which there are bo=
th explicit and implicit references to ICT.

Perhaps, the website I have created to support Digital Literacy and ICT may=
offer some ideas to help you answer your question.

The site is located at http://www.fife-education.org.uk/Dig_Lit/index.htm=

and a series of mind maps consider ICT within the Curriculum which may be u=
seful and are to be found in the ICT in CfE pages at
http://www.fife-education.org.uk/Dig_Lit/ICT_CfE/index.htm.
