This text provides an analysis of the role that information and communication technologies can have in teaching and learning. It explores how communication capability through the Internet, Web and email changes the nature of the teacher-learner interface itself, as well as the learner-technology interface. The book is derived from selected contributions to the seventh World Conference on Computers in Education (WCCE), which was sponsored by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) and held in Copenhagen, Denmark in July/August 2001. The volume is presented in three parts: papers organized around themes - open and distance learning, ICT in learning, new pedagogic ideas, teaching mathematics, teaching computer science, forms of assessment, management and resources, teacher education and national initiatives; professional groups providing reflections and perspectives on issues from social and ethical concerns, virtual universities and the next generation of programming languages, to the interface between virtuality and reality in schools and the role of large multi-national projects to stimulate change; reports of the lively discussions during panel sessions, such as provoking new images of research and practices, experiences of e-learning and e-training and the future platforms in educational technology. Keywords provide readers with different conceptual slices that can be found across the chapters, such as collaborative learning, problem solving, cognition and interactions.
