Implementing use of ICT in teacher education

Teachers in Sweden are still in need of digital literacies to master the pedagogical use of ICT in schools. Teacher education has a key role in adding the use of ICT to the abilities of their students and teachers. At Stockholm Institute of Education the Learning Resource Centre has an important role in providing appropriate technology, supported learning environments and competence development for teachers and students. Competence development programs focus on digital literacies. Continuous self evaluation by participants points to good results. The problems which arise for teachers are mainly dependant on lack of time for training and maintaining digital work patterns.
