ICT Professional Learning - Transformative

This Key Area is concerned with the priority given to ICT in Professional Learning with a particular emphasis on transforming learning and teaching.

At the transformative level ICT professional learning is being undertaken with a view of changing the way that learning and teaching takes place within and beyond the school.  Such change will result in students learning new things in new ways, not previously possible.
