ICT in Faculties of Education Integrating technology is a common concern to us all: Lagrange, A. , & Foulkes, E. , Eds. (2004). Emergent Framework for ICT Integration within Faculties of Education in Canada. Summary of a report prepared for Industry Canada on behalf of Canadian Association of Deans of Education (CADE) & L’Association francophone des doyennes et des doyens, des directrices et des directeurs d’education du Canada (AFDÉC).

Alberta Teacher Certification Directive 4. 2. 1 - Teaching Quality Standard Applicable to the Provision of Basic Education in Alberta (Approved May 14, 1997) … teachers who hold an Interim Professional Certificate are expected to demonstrate consistently that they understand: … j) the functions of traditional and electronic teaching/learning technologies. They know how to use and how to engage students in using these technologies to present and deliver content, communicate effectively with others, find and secure information, research, word process, manage information, and keep records; Jan. 13, 2005 (UVic) Jo. Anne Davies - UAlberta Faculty of Education 30
Alberta Teacher Certification (cont’d) h) Teachers apply a variety of technologies to meet students’ learning needs. Teachers use teaching/learning resources such as the chalkboard, texts, computers and other auditory, print and visual media, and maintain an awareness of emerging technological resources. They keep abreast of advances in teaching/learning technologies and how they can be incorporated into instruction and learning. As new technologies prove useful and become available in schools, teachers develop their own and their students’ proficiencies in using the technologies purposefully, which may include content presentation, delivery and research applications, as well as word processing, information management and record keeping. Teachers use electronic networks and other telecommunication media to enhance their own knowledge and abilities, and to communicate more effectively with others. http: //www. education. gov. ab. ca/Education.
