Digital Literacy: Curriculum Consistency

Whoops, you seem to have scripting disabled!

Have European countries implemented a nationally consistent Digital Literacy curriculum? Is it uniform across different schools in the country?

Depending on the administrative structure of the respective country, the curriculum for any given subject is defined at different administrative levels. For subjects taught in an integrated way or as electives that do not count towards final grades, exceptions may apply.

The map shows at which administrative level decisions regarding a Digital Curriculum are made or, put differently, how much leeway is given to instructors.

The scale is as follows:

• School - Each school can decide which topics are covered and which competences are aimed for.
• District - All decisions regarding topics and competences are made at school district level.
• State - All decisions regarding topics and competences are made at the second administrative level (federal state/region).
• Country - A central authority decides upon topics and competences which are then mandatory for all schools.
