Digital Literacy and Technological Skills (DLTS)@ Clementi Primary School

We aim to equip our students with these skills to use computers and the Internet safely. They also learn to find information, create digital work, and be responsible online. These skills are divided into 9 digital competencies (DC) as shown in the table below.

Primary 1 & 2 - TECHSPARK @ CTP

Clementians will begin their DLTS journey by igniting their curiosity and creativity with technology. They will learn essential digital skills including computer basics (Use of mouse and Touch Typing for keyboard), safe browsing habits, using the SLS, performing kid-friendly searches, understanding web links, identifying appropriate content, basic image/text editing, introductory touch-typing, and practicing online safety etiquette.

Primary 3 & 4 - TECHVENTURE @ CTP

Clementians will embark on exciting technology-driven adventures. These include developing key digital competencies including online privacy management, digital identity protection strategies, advanced web searching, personal data safeguarding protocols, foundational cybersecurity principles, proficiency in word processing and spreadsheet applications while incorporating the use of Google Classroom, effective video conferencing conduct, and critical evaluation of online information sources.

Primary 5 & 6 - TECHFUSION @ CTP

Clementians will blend innovation and learning with technology. We focus on the following key areas:

Responsible Digital Citizenship: Clementians will develop a strong understanding of ethical online conduct, responsible communication practices, and digital safety protocols. This includes fostering respectful interactions and awareness of online risks.
Multimedia Content Creation: Clementians will learn the foundational skills for creating various forms of digital media, including images, audio, and video. This fosters creativity and provides avenues for expressing their understanding through diverse mediums.
