New Literacies Programme

Title (original language): Hyvin sanottu Projektet Bra sagt

The goal of the New Literacy development program is to strengthen children's and young people's media literacy, information and communication technology (ICT) skills, and programming skills in early childhood education and preschool and basic education.

In the fall of 2020, the Ministry of Education and Culture launched the New Literacy Development Program for the years 2020-2023, and it is part of the Ministry's broader Right to Learn development program.  

In spring 2021, the development program published descriptions of skills for information and communication technology skills, media literacy and programming skills. The descriptions of competence are based on the basics of the early childhood education plan and the curriculum for pre-primary and basic education. The National Audiovisual Institute and Opetushallitus are responsible for the development of the descriptions.
