Note(s) : Includes bibliographical references
The societal changes engendered by the rapid technological advances of the past century
underline more than ever the crucial need to reflect on the future of our educational
systems. Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have completely modified
our living, working, spending and leisure patterns, but do they also offer the very
opportunity that we, as citizens, parents, teachers and politicians, have been seeking
to ensure that children all over the world have access to an education that will enable
them to become masters of their own lives? "Upon What Does the Turtle Stand?" attempts
to answer this question by: examining the social aims underlying ICT integration in
education; providing readers with a broad overview of the subject; underlining similarities
and differences, points of accord and of conflict in implementation strategies and
approaches; presenting the issue from the standpoint of highly experienced experts
in the field; enabling readers to perceive more clearly the fundamental aims and values
upon which "The Turtle Stands". This publication offers a wealth of information to
researchers, academics, university lecturers, students, teacher trainers and trainees,
educationalists and policy makers in their quest to define the rightful role of ICT
in education
