Add your own review!

Overview

In-service training has an important role to play in improving the performance of both teachers and teacher educators. The challenge of preparing and sustaining teachers who are capable of making use of new technology to support traditional and emerging educational objectives, and who are also able to thrive in a climate of continuous change, is a daunting one. This book considers how the fundamental issues are currently being tackled across the world. It features: international perspectives on the challenge that information and communications technology poses to teacher education; views of trainee teacher experiences with computers; insights into the ways in which communication technologies are being used to link teachers and students; consideration of the impact of change with information and communications technology; and discussion of the roles of those involved in developing teacher education with information and communications technology at national, institutional and teacher levels.
