摘要
To meet the increasing demand for change in the infusion of ICT pedagogy in education a nationwide project was launched in Greece on May 2008. An INSET course for primary school teachers in the pedagogy of ICT in classroom instruction. The writer, aimed to study the teachers’ views about certain aspects of the training experience in terms of the teacher-trainees’ acquisition of ICT competencies as well as of any successful implementation of ICT pedagogic practices in classroom instruction through the identification of any actual observable changes in the teachers’ profiles during and after the training course. It appeared that the development and promotion of ICT pedagogic activities in the class are closely linked to the identification and successful handling of the teachers’ diverse profiles on ICT in education during the training sessions and the in class instruction practices. © 2013, Springer Science+Business Media New York.
