Abstract:

This document is for students in teacher education programs or who are thinking about the possibility of becoming school teachers. The goal is to help you take increased responsibility for your preparation to make effective and appropriate use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) during your own education and during your teaching career. ICT includes computers, calculators, personal digital assistants, cell telephones, audio and video storage and playback devices, digital still and motion cameras, the Internet (including email and the Web), computer games, computer-assisted instruction, distance learning, and so on. ICT is a powerful change agent. Some of these changes strongly impact curriculum, instruction, and assessment in both precollege and in higher education. This short document focuses on just a few key ideas of how ICT is affecting and will affect you and our educational systems.
