Abstract
Globalization and advancement in technology are driving changes in the social, technological, economical, environmental and political landscapes at such a pace and magnitude that is too great and too multiple to ignore. Teachers are expected to facilitate learning and making it useful and meaningful to the individual learner by providing knowledge and skills. Innovative technologies are providing teachers with new possibilities but at the same time placing more demands on teachers to learn how to use these technologies in their teachings and prepare students with the knowledge and skills they need in the 21st century. ICT has great potential for enhancing teaching and learning outcomes. This would in turn depend on the kind of training that the teacher has undergone. ICT teacher training should therefore be considered as continuing process, with the need of continuing support.
