TEACHERS, TEACHING AND ICTs:

GUIDING QUESTIONS:

1. What do we know about successful pedagogical strategies utilizing ICTs for teaching and learning?
2. What is known about eff ective teacher professional development?
3. What do we know about the impact of ICTs on teacher performance?
4. What do we know about the impact of ICTs on teacher motivation?

 Role of the teacher:

Teachers remain central to the learning process:

A shift in the role of a teacher utilizing ICTs to that of a facilitator does not obviate the need for teachers to serve as leaders in the classroom; traditional teacher leadership skills and practices are still important (especially those related to lesson planning, preparation and follow-up).

 Lesson planning is crucial when using ICTs:

Teacher lesson planning is vital when using ICTs; where little planning has occurred, research shows that student work is often unfocused and can result in lower attainment.
