Integrating Ict Into Scienceeffective Curriculum Ideas
This study examines the development of technology, pedagogy, and content knowledge (TPACK) in four in-service secondary science teachers as they participated in a professional development program focusing on technology integration into K-12 classrooms to support science as inquiry teaching. Technology integration is an important way to create meaningful learning experiences. Lesson planning for teachers can be overwhelming when incorporating the use of computers in activities. In this article, the process for integrating technology is outlined in four easy steps. Technology Integration Lesson Planning Process. Workshop on ICT-pedagogy Integration A 5-day workshop for teacher educators of TEIs focusing (one for each of the TEIs of the target country) on ICT-pedagogy integration. Effective (training) strategies on how to use ICT into different pedagogy: Pedagogical principles, supporting examples, appropriate tools, etc.
