[seul-edu] [kidsgames] what to teach (fwd)

[Kidsgames Project Coordinator - Jeff Waddell <jeff@smluc.org>]

I thought this link might be useful to the seul-edu project for future
reference....It's uk specific, are there similar curricula sites for other
countries/areas?

Subject: [kidsgames] what to teach


In searching for a sources of text for the dictionary project, I hit upon
the idea of checking out home schooling pages and national curricula.  I
didn't find what I was looking for (an online text with everything you must
teach for a complete K-12 education), but the national curricula are
interesting.  In particular http://www.dfee.gov.uk/nc/ gives explicit
guidelines for what each age group is expected to learn.  When building
a game to teach a particular concept, you could do worse than look here
for an appropriate target age.  And conversely, this is a good place to
look for concepts to embed in a game which is targetted at a particular
age group.
