    The changing role of the teacher in technology-enhanced learning is
    interesting, on many occasions teachers are blamed for not adapting and
    incorporating technology into their teaching. It is up to the school and the
    teachers themselves to work together to stay up to speed!

    No need to be scared of
    change
    Here are some reasons why certain
    teachers may feel inclined to not
    welcome ICT in their classroom
    Lack of resources. Not having enough time to
    get familiar with the tools. Being unsure of what
    can be achieved with which technology. No
    training in pedagogy and strategies that works
    well with specific technologies. Uncertainty in discussions and individual/small group work
    assessing and evaluating the learning that has using ICTs. ICTs are seen as important tools to
    been gained using technology. Issues around enable and support the move from traditional
    managing behaviour and the classroom. 'teacher-centric' teaching styles to more 'learner-
    Demands on meeting specific learning centric' methods.
    objectives-as technology doesn’t always fit in to
    meet these.

    “I prefer to keep using


    my current methods”

    The school and teachers must work


    together to overcome these ‘fears’
    Research consensus holds that the most effective
    uses of ICT are those in which the teacher, aided
    by ICTs, can challenge pupils’ understanding
    and thinking, either through whole-class

    IMPORTANCE OF YOUR COMPUTERIST


    Evolution; Slate tablets become pencil and paper, which in turn
    become screen and keyboard. The abacus and slide rule become
    the calculator, and the blackboard becomes the smart board, by
    way of the whiteboard. The technology of the classroom is always
    changing, and will always continue to change. So, how do schools
    keep up and how do teachers learn these technologies? The school
    must nominate a (hopefully) computer savvy individual who will
    be trained how to implement and use these technologies. This
    person will then be able to teach their colleagues. .
