Level 3 Digital Technologies
Option Description
Digital Technologies focuses on building ākonga capability to apply technological ideas within a digital environment.
As they study, ākonga will develop computational thinking skills, and the ability to design and develop digital outcomes. They will also learn how computers represent and process data — the fundamental material of the subject. They will learn about the digital design and development processes used to create, test, and evaluate digital outcomes. Ākonga will practise manaakitanga as they learn to prioritise users in the outcomes they develop, and understand how Digital Technologies outcomes impact on the people who use them.
