Background

The explosive growth of web 2.0 technologies and their potential for supporting learning processes has been witnessed in many development projects. The encounter with young peoples' intensive use of media makes teachers' ICT empowerment unavoidable. Basic ICT-skills are no longer sufficient. Teachers of today still lack methods for integrating ICT into teaching. The time has come to collect and mainstream scattered experiences with training teachers in this field. - But how to identify teachers' ICT pedagogical competencies? Schools and teacher training institutes rarely outline ICT-pedagogical competency profiles. In spite of a variety of courses, teachers search unavailingly for transparent mainstream offers. Implementations of broad initiatives have ended, when shown to be difficult.
