Why the ICT-CFT? Strong global need to impart ICT skills to teachers, No agreement on “what” ICT skills are needed? No universally-recognized certification for ICT skills for teachers and no universal assessment tools, No framework to update teacher training programmes to reflect fast moving changes in technology.
