  3. 3 levels of consideration ‘Reliability’ 2. MatchingTechnology 1. Purposes & Rationale 3. WorkingKnowledge Professional learning 4. CostEffectiveness Collaboration Success factors in using ICT Practices using ICT

  4. Organising for ICT literacy • Where do student learn about ICT (2003-4)? • Cases • Specialist programs (e.g. linked with Library) • Architecture • Managing cost, value & risk • * Computer at home?

  6. ICT adoption (ACOT) * TAFE - Automotive

  7. Curriculum forms (Seaton)

  8. Activities in pedagogy • Make a ‘working model’ ? Design task Transfer learning Make arrangements Prior learning? Hopes? Do it & Learn!! Check on learning Choose a focus Establish rapport Check on progress

  9. Explicit Knowledge InsightfulQuestioning Activities Tacit Knowledge Audience? T & LPractices Experience • Technology • Shared Purposes • Matching & available • Working Knowledge • Cost effectiveness Products Action, Learning & ICT • Action  Experience  Insight  Knowledge • ICT is used in activities (practices)

  10. Learning from practice Three key questions requiring your professional judgement: • What is desirable (for whom, why…)? • What is possible (under what conditions)? • What is feasible (when, where, with whom...)? COLAT project website: • www.educ.utas.edu.au/users/ilwebb/Research/
