DescriptionBoth education and technology continue to develop at an increasing pace, and responding to that change is an important part of leaders' work. This workshop aims to provide a view of theories and models of change with information technology in education and to assist participants to plan their work as change agents who support schools and colleges to adapt to the needs of their twenty-first century society. Participants will become more informed about educational renewal with ICT, starting with an ecological and global perspective of educational systems and then zooming in, through models of change for a school, to an individual teacher's efforts to improve classroom pedagogy, finally ending our journey by considering the characteristics of the innovation that is the focus of adoption and/or rejection.
