Seven Steps to ICT Integration
Author(s): Robertson, Webb & Fluck
Publisher: ACER Press, 2007
Seven Steps to ICT Integration is not just another 'how to' book. Complex ideas related to the integration of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in educational settings are interpreted in ways that are pragmatic and sustainable for improved educational outcomes. The ideas and strategies presented in this book are grounded in practical solutions to problems and issues identified in schools and higher education through several years of research.
This book promotes learning that enables readers to construct and reconstruct their own understandings of:
- their lived experience in relation to the use of ICT
- its possibilities for continuation
- the oppor tunities for improvement and change
- the constraints currently limiting initiatives.
Advocating a whole-school approach, Seven Steps to ICT Integration provides research-based case studies on the integration of ICT in practice. These will provide useful insights for schools, TAFEs and local government.
'One might agree that the authors make a good point when they note that teachers are caught in the middle, they must "broker the connections" ...
Noting that not only must teaching methods change but also learning outcomes, Robertson et al. clearly set out some main differences between "new" and "old" ways of teaching.'
