It is one thing to know the importance of ICT. Another is to be able to implement your application. Unesco itself has prepared a framework program on information technologies, with the level of skills that teachers need to integrate ICT into their professional practices.
This integrates not only the knowledge of the technologies for the classroom and the planning of the courses, but tools to improve the capacities of organization and management of both the classroom and collaborative groups. The project ends with the integration of technologies in educational institutions as a whole.
Thus, it will be increasingly necessary that teachers have the ability to create networking environments for students to save, share and develop their work in a collaborative manner, and learn to use technologies with flexible teaching-centered teaching strategies centered on the student.
This requires leadership. Teachers must be transformed for the process of continuous teaching and support, and educational institutions must develop a true vision of their establishments as a community, based on innovation and continuous learning, which is enriched by information technologies.
How do institutions of Higher Education adapt to the changing reality of society, actively contributing changes from the training of the best professionals?
It is about acting as an institution that learns and advances, and new technologies have made available the tools that provide multiple benefits to make the leap from being an outdated institution to achieve high performance and continuous improvement.
