Why ELFE?
A lot of money is spend on ICT in Schools High expectations of what ICT can
achieve Do the students learn more? Technical problems or lack of ICT-training
of teachers is often used as an excuse Do we know how to use ICT pedagogically
to optimise the learning process? Need for exchange of good practices Too often, only the frontrunners are
involved in the exchange of experiences

Questions to working groups on the draft ETUCE policy paper on ICT in Educ. Part 1
Instead of debating the individual arguments, we would like you to debate:
SECTIONS 1 AND 2: 1 - Are we missing any important arguments
for using ICT in education? 2 - Are we missing any important risks or
opportunities that should be added to the list?
SECTIONS 3 AND 4 3 - Are there any important factors that
should be added to the list? 4 - Which factors do you find of primary
importance to have a successful use of ICT in Education?
