Series: Improving Learning

Improving Classroom Learning with ICT examines the ways in which ICT can be used in the classroom to enhance teaching and learning in different settings and across different subjects.

Weaving together evidence of teachers’ and learners’ experiences of ICT, the authors:

explain why the process of integrating ICT is not straightforward;

discuss whether hardware and infrastructure alone are sufficient to ensure full integration and exploitation of ICT investment;

emphasise the pivotal role that teachers play in supporting learning with ICT across the curriculum;

argue that teachers need a greater understanding of how to put ICT to use in teaching and learning;

highlight that out-of-school use of ICT has an impact on in-school learning;

consider what kinds of professional development are most effective in supporting teachers to use technologies creatively and productively.

Case studies are used to illustrate key issues and to elaborate a range of theoretical ideas that can be used in the classroom.

This book will be of interest to all those concerned with maximising the benefits of ICT in the classroom.

Reviews for Improving Classroom Learning with ICT

I would recommend this book for everyone in the field of Education, particularly those actively involved in classrooms, whether as teachers, researchers or policy makers. But I would like to recommend it even more enthusiastically as part of a discussion on the use of ICT in a school, one which will address these challenging questions of how we teach, what we teach and why..... the broad picture it creates could be a springboard into a compelling and thought-provoking discussion Escalate
