Today, most young children enter formal schooling with varying degrees of capabilities in ICT.
Science must build on this as part of the development of sound foundations to ensure that by the end of the primary years they are competent, confident, motivated and critical users of ICT in the science curriculum.
As a teacher, you must be prepared to offer children a wide range of access to ICT regardless of your own personal capabilities in ICT.
