WHAT A PROFESSIONAL LEARNING NETWORK SHOULD BE -- CCTI 1.2.2


I read through all the ideas in the group and made and attempt to summerise all our ideas. What do you think members?

  2. Should provide applicable and immediate solutions to the challenges faced in the profession.

  6. Should provide some level of confidentiality.

The teachers have basic knowledge about Digital Technology; mostly acquired as a result of the school emphasis (in its different policies), on need for knowledge in ICT as a prerequisite for employment in any of the campuses. There is a growing use, however, of application of Digital Technology in learning. The learners study ICT as a subject and are able to use the knowledge they acquire to use the different Digital Technologies in place. These technologies include, but is not limited to smart phones, lap...
