Sub-conference C5:
Teacher Professional Development and Education Policy
The rapid advancements of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) offer unique affordances to enhance the quality of teaching and learning in the classroom. However, such reform is dependent on teachers’ capacities to integrate ICT, which is in turn dependent on teacher professional development. In addition, education policies and school leaderships shape the larger context of ICT integration and are thus important considerations that should not be ignored. This sub-conference aims to promote research in these areas and the intersection between technology, professional development and policies. Through contributions made by the conference participants, we hope to derive new perspectives and research directions that could further alleviate the development of ICT integration.
The scope of papers will cover but not be limited to:
1) Key concerns for teacher professional development for promoting technology transformed learning
2) Effective ways of teacher professional development for promoting technology transformed learning
3) Technological innovations for teacher professional development
4) Planning of policy on technology transformed learning
5) Initiatives of policy on technology transformed learning
6) Analysis of policy on technology transformed learning
