Ignition: Future Goals

Future Goals is a timely, content rich online resource that supports Social Responsibility and current and draft core competencies: the Communication Competency, the Personal and Social Competency, and B.C.’s Digital Literacy Competencies. The content is appropriate and accessible for the intended age range, and meets multiple learning styles through various interactive modules. Current topics include cyberbullying, digital footprint, and secure online identities. While designed for independent learning, the resource could be used collaboratively with groups and/or whole class learning opportunities. Critical thinking and communication skill development is a main focus of the resource. The resource is well organized in a clear and logical manner and the concluding simulation allows students to both apply their new skills and knowledge and assess their mastery. Teachers can monitor student progress throughout the course.
