The Role of I.T. Practical Issues for the Primary Teacher

In light in the range of issues faced by teachers and students planning to develop information technology capability across the curriculum, Loveless (education, U. of Brighton) discusses reasons for using it in the classroom and focuses on the role of the teacher in understanding its purpose in the curriculum. She highlights how it can be used as a tool in dealing with information, as a resource for learning by giving insight into the nature of tasks; and as a thought provoker by contributing new ways of working for learners and teachers.
