In the Guardian, Richard Needham, chair-elect of the Association for Science Education, discusses how the challenge of furthering the use of ICT in science teaching lies not in improving teachers’ technology skills but in changing their attitudes.
“The bigger challenge is to pass on the control of technology to the pupils, giving them responsibility for the pace and direction of their learning,” he says, citing OOKL as an ‘exciting’ example of how this is taking place in schools.
