Description

The introduction establishes ICT as an important subject in secondary education and focuses on how teachers can help students develop meaningful ICT knowledge and skills.

Main ideas

1. ICT is a subject in its own right
   ICT should not be viewed simply as using computers. Students need to understand ICT concepts, develop practical skills, and learn how technology can be applied to solve problems.
2. Teaching ICT requires subject knowledge
   Teachers need both knowledge of ICT and knowledge of how students learn ICT. A good ICT teacher continually develops their own subject knowledge
