Paper Abstract:
|
This paper describes a laptop program established by the Faculty of Education at the University of Wollongong in NSW
Australia to support pre-service teachers learning with ICTs. The discussion focuses on the learning needs of students
recognizing that pedagogies for teachers faced with laptop learners also require planned support and consideration
(Campbell & Pargas, 2003). Issues related to laptop use in higher education are explored and a framework is given for
proposed research on the program and community. |
