ICT can have a significant impact on teaching, learning and school planning and administration. It offers learners opportunities to realise their individual potential and teachers new opportunities to develop professional skills in the classroom.
Schools should consider how they can integrate ICT into the school culture to enable sharing and mutual support among the teachers, collaboration with other schools locally and globally while also improving communications with parents and the wider local community.
Understanding the application of digital technology in the classroom and seeing the practical implementation of digital technology in learning and teaching is most important for teachers.
Here schools will find links and resources to assist in the planning and resourcing of ICT infrastructure.
This section provides links to information available on Digital Technology in the Curriclum from organisations such as NCCA, PDST, Scoilnet, etc.
