By the end of Level 2, students identify how common digital systems are used to meet specific purposes.
Students use digital systems to represent simple patterns in data in different ways and collect familiar data and display them to convey meaning.
Students design solutions to simple problems...
Level description | Technologies | Digital Technologies | Foundation to Level 2
In Foundation to Level 2, students are introduced to common digital systems and patterns that exist within data they collect. Students organise, manipulate and present this data, including numerical, categorical, text, image, audio and video data, in creative ways to create meaning.
Students use...

By the end of Level A, students recognise common digital systems that are used to meet specific everyday purposes.
Students react to different types of data and how digital systems can be used to represent data as images.
Students recognise that routine tasks involve completing a set of steps.
Level description | Technologies | Digital Technologies | Level A
In Level A, student experiences are designed to move students from a pre-intentional level of responding to a level where the response indicates beginning intention. Students will have had opportunities to experience and react to a range of digital solutions through explorative learning and guided...

By the end of Level B, students explore some common digital systems for a purpose.
Students collect data, sort them based on given characteristics and with assistance use digital systems to display findings as images.
Students follow a sequence of steps and decisions needed to solve simple problems.
Level description | Technologies | Digital Technologies | Level B
In Level B, students become less reliant on high levels of co-active support and become more reliant on verbal prompts and gestures to facilitate learning. Students will have opportunities to create a range of digital solutions through structured learning experience, guided play and integrated...

By the end of Level C, students explore alternative digital systems to meet a purpose.
Students collect and sort different data and identify patterns in data through matching. With assistance, they use digital systems to display findings with pictures and symbols.
Students represent a sequence of...
Level description | Technologies | Digital Technologies | Level C
In Level C, students intentionally participate in learning experiences and respond more consistently to prompts and simple clear directions from the teacher to support them to learn. They will have opportunities to create a range of digital solutions through structured learning experiences and...

By the end of Level D, students use key functions of digital systems and indicate their purpose.
Students collect, sort and recognise, with assistance different types of patterns in data. They use digital systems to display results using pictures, symbols and diagrams.
Students use a sequence of...
Level description | Technologies | Digital Technologies | Level D
In Level D, students are building their independence and participating cooperatively in group learning activities. They combine and sequence key words and images to communicate personal interest and significant experiences and are beginning to reflect on their own behaviour and learning. They...
Level description | Technologies | Digital Technologies
By the end of Level 10, students explain the control and management of networked digital systems and the data security implications of the interaction between hardware, software and users.
Students explain simple data compression, and why content data are separated from presentation. They take...
Level description | Technologies | Digital Technologies | Levels 9 and 10
By the end of Level 8, students distinguish between different types of networks and their suitability in meeting defined purposes.
Students explain how text, image and sound data can be represented and secured in digital systems and presented using digital systems. They analyse and evaluate data...
Level description | Technologies | Digital Technologies | Levels 7 and 8
By the end of Level 6, students explain the functions of digital system components and how digital systems are connected to form networks that transmit data.
Students explain how digital systems use whole numbers as a basis for representing a variety of data types. They manage the creation and...
Level description | Technologies | Digital Technologies | Levels 5 and 6
By the end of Level 4, students describe how a range of digital systems and their peripheral devices can be used for different purposes.
Students explain how the same data sets can be represented in different ways. They collect and manipulate different data when creating information and digital...
Level description | Technologies | Digital Technologies | Levels 3 and 4
In Levels 9 and 10, students apply systems thinking skills when considering how human interaction with networked systems introduces complexities surrounding access to, and the security and privacy of, data of various types. They interrogate security practices and techniques used to compress data...
Level description | Technologies | Digital Technologies
In Levels 5 and 6, students develop an understanding of the role individual components of digital systems play in the processing and representation of data. They acquire, validate, interpret, track and manage various types of data and are introduced to the concept of data states in digital systems...
Level description | Technologies | Digital Technologies
In Levels 3 and 4, students explore digital systems in terms of their components and peripheral devices such as digital microscopes, cameras and interactive whiteboards. They collect, manipulate and interpret data, developing an understanding of the characteristics of data and their representation.
S...
Level description | Technologies | Digital Technologies
In Levels 7 and 8, students analyse the properties of networked systems and their suitability and use for the transmission of data types. They acquire, analyse, validate and evaluate various types of data, and appreciate the complexities of storing and transmitting that data in digital systems.
Stude...
Level description | Technologies | Digital Technologies
In Digital Technologies, students are actively engaged in the processes of analysing problems and opportunities, designing, developing and evaluating digital solutions, and creating and sharing information that meets a range of current and future needs. Students learn to safely and ethically exploit...
