Editor's Notes
- CKC - Introduction the central goal of the project is to produce “explanatory case studies” demonstrating the relationship between ICT and learning our approach has two major emphases; the first is to capture the ecology of learning the second is to use new technologies to develop representations of the use of ICT for learning the project is working in nine schools which represent three areas of emphasis: ICT across the curriculum, personal computing, and learning platform/VLE. the project is collecting data in three phases: PHASE I Two-day “deep audit” of school; recruitment of teachers who will fill in logs; PHASE II 200+Teacher logs of individual lessons; PHASE III Interviews with the 36+ teachers who have submitted teacher logs. Interviews will be based on contrastive representations of their own teaching and that of two other teachers.
