Source document note

The official curriculum document has a fault in this entry, so the curriculum text above is transcribed exactly as printed:

  • sub strand name - p.28: the page is headed 'SUB-STRAND 10: DIGITAL LITERACY', which is p.27's heading repeated. Its own content standard reads 'B5.6.10.1. Demonstrated the application of Network Etiquette (Netiquette).'; the scope and sequence (p.xxi) names sub-strand 10 of strand 6 'Network Etiquette'; and B6 heads the same sub-strand 'SUB-STRAND 10: INTERNET ETIQUETTE' (p.53).
