Six Realities of ICT for Teachers in Asia and Pacific Region
1. ICTs equipped in political showrooms, no rooms to show real impact
2. ICTs over-used by students outside schools, but under-used by teachers in classrooms
3. Teachers grown from non-information society, students born as ICT Natives
4. Teachers are lack of ICT competency, teacher educators not better; individual capacity is insufficient, institutional capacity not better
Teacher Educators
Pre-service Teachers
5. Teachers prepared by teacher centered approach, asked to teach with student centered pedagogy
6. Student-centered is labeled as trademark of teacher-centered instruction, not being used as ‘marks’ to trade students’ achievements
Six Realities of ICT for Teachers in Asia and Pacific Region
Challenge: ICTs radicalize pedagogy innovation
ICTs heavily added values to“3Cs” of students: Learning content enriched to multiple sources, communication extended among them and beyond, and individuals become online or face-to-face community
Fulcrum of pedagogy needs to shift from teachers center to student center to gain a new balance and harness the full potential of ICT for learning. Learning
Community
Content Sources
Communication
Opportunity:ICTs enable the pedagogy innovation
Teachers can innovate pedagogy by ICT-enabled “3Cs”: Enrich content by searching engines, facilitate knowledge
understanding by multimedia & computation tools, and manage learning content by LMS.
Join and facilitate communication with students Organize meaningful collaboration in learning community

Two pitfalls in pedagogy innovation
Disregard use of ICT for traditional pedagogy: Subject specific contents are indispensable building blocks of project based learning activities
Gap between the espoused pedagogy and the pedagogy-in-use: Self labeling teacher-centered activities as student-centered ones risks aggravating teacher’s pedagogy development
