Data-processing patent and Internet

In France, the data-processing Patent and Internet (also called B2i ) are a certificate delivered with the pupils of the elementary schools, colleges and colleges for their capacity to use the computer tools and Internet. However this certificate is not to confuse with a diploma, it is only one proof that the pupil in question acquired a certain control of the TIC (Communication and Information Technologies).

Founded in 2000, it is connected with European PCIE, and falls under the policy of Société of information of the European commission. The level college is integrated in 2008 in the Brevet of the colleges.

Data-processing patent and Internet - level 1 (Level school)

A free test of B2i is proposed on line on Eloce. The pupil colors a box with the code which it finds on the page of his answer. Simple and effective for the end of CM2: http://eloce.free.fr/b2i.html

Field 4: To get information, document themselves

Principal knowledge

The research tools use criteria of classification and selection of information.

Objective

To seek and select relevant information, by taking of account richnesses and limits of the resources of the Internet, to answer a request.

Capacities

The pupil must be able of:

to seek and select information requested.

Field 5: To communicate, exchange

Principal knowledge

There exist communications tools allowing of the exchanges in direct mode or differed mode.

Objective

To communicate, exchange and publish with communication and information technologies.

Capacities

The pupil must be able of:

to write, send, diffuse, publish;
to receive a message, a comment including with enclosures;
