Experimenting with ICT in teachers’ initial training
Abstract
In a society in which technologies have increasing relevance, there are several arguments for their inclusion in school. Indeed, the use of Information and Communication Technology emerges as a great and valuable possibility of change, a new support of teaching-learning processes. It seems clear that its use constitutes an unavoidable fact to which no teacher should remain indifferent. This is the purpose of this article which focuses on the importance of ICT in the context of practicum placements. To this extent, we describe 10 seminars about practicum placements in the Trás-os-Montes y Alto Douro University (Portugal), with future teachers of elementary education. During these seminars some ICT tools were presented so that students could check how they could use those tools in their lessons, show their usefulness in their future teaching and leave advice on how future teachers might elaborate digital pedagogical materials which respond to their educational intentions and to different learning environments according to learning characteristics and styles. It concludes by highlighting the relevance of these seminars and the usefulness of ICT in the context of practicum placements.
