Podcast #1 - CT in the Classroom

Why have teachers been reluctant to integrate ICT in the classroom? Welcome to the first episode of "Learning Research - the podcast". In this episode, "ICT in the classroom: Integration & teacher training" hear from researchers in the field of ICT & education as they tackle some of the big questions: What are the mistakes and challenges? What are the secrets to success? And, what will the role of the teacher be in the future ICT-enriched classroom? Brought to you by the CoCo Research Centre. http://www.sydney.edu.au/edsw/coco

Thanks lookang. I think you're absolutely right. One of our current lines of research is on understanding how schools can be helped towards a better understanding of the value of taking (pedagogical) risks.

We hope to have a podcast on that soon.

Hi!!!Great vid docu...we can't generalize all the teachers to be the same...take into consideration my experience in teaching I am looking for something good for my students and i found out that they are interested in ICT yet, the school has no fundings availabe since it is a public school...'til now our available units are far way behind iwth hte others...

Really good video documentation. The ideias shared in this video are very useful for every teacher and ICT admin.

Keep up the good work.

Some great "ICT in the classroom" inspiration can be found at this website: search google for "No strings attached, University Southern Florida"

They have over 100 lesson plans and short demo videos of the lessons in action in schools. They cover all subject areas and all grades k-12. They also have it available as a free video podcast via iTunes U.

nice podcast. every teacher who has been exploring ICT in learning will testify to many of the similar concerns and share your reflections.

so the problems are identified, how do we move forward in this ICT transformation in education for 21 st century learning?

ultimately, i share the view that engage, empower and enable, a people focus strategy will yield more good than the usual hierarchical approach to facilitate the ICT education.

hope to see more good podcast from you guys !!
