Od devet-/desetletnikov se pričakuje, da že imajo razvite temeljne zmožnosti pismenosti, zato se 4. razred zdi primeren za razvijanje računalniške, informacijske, digitalne in medijske pismenosti. Z nastavitvijo spletne učilnice Moodle se lahko opismenjevanje izvede vzporedno ob doseganju ciljev iz učnega načrta, zato je omenjeno orodje zame predstavljajo nov izziv. Klasično učno okolje sem povezala z e-učnim okoljem, ki daje poučevanju in učenju nove razsežnosti in kjer smo z možnostmi in dejavnostmi, ki jih le-ta ponuja, sistematično pripravljali učence za smotrno uporabo IKT in varno uporabo interneta ter razvijali ključne kompetence IKT, potrebne za uspešno delovanje v današnji informacijski družbi.

Ključne besede: spletno učno okolje Moodle, poučevanje in učenje z IKT, 4. razred OŠ.

Abstract

One expects of nine/ten-year-old children to have basic capabilities of literacy, thus the 4th grade seems appropriate to develop computer, information, digital, and media literacy. With the setting up of virtual learning environment Moodle, the achieving of literacy can be executed parallel with achieving goals from the curriculum; therefore, the mentioned tool represented a new challenge to me. I connected the classical study environment with e-study environment which gives teaching and learning new extension and where, with possibilities and activities it offers, we could systematically prepare the pupils for reasonable use of ICT and safe use of the internet, and developed key competence of ICT, needed for successful operation in today’s information society.

Key words: virtual learning environment Moodle, teaching and learning with ICT, 4th grade of the elementary school
