Description:<br />
The main objective was to update teachers' skills and knowledge so that they make<br />
best use of the new opportunities created by information and communication<br />
technologies to support learning and teaching, and competence development. In<br />
relation to the subjects taught by the teachers involved and regarding the technical<br />
equipment of the partner schools, the project focussed on how to use multimedia<br />
devices (e.g. interactive digital whiteboards), how to use the internet for creating<br />
teaching materials and aids, which computer programs can be used during lessons,<br />
how to teach using e-learning, make lessons more attractive and the role of ICT in<br />
self-learning, search of an optimal balanced mixture of computer-based and traditional<br />
learning methods and finally how ICT can support headmasters' management.<br />
The promotion of digital media equipment enabled the participating schools to<br />
purchase necessary modern technology for teaching and learning with a focus on<br />
digital interactive whiteboards. The new methods tried and approved by single<br />
teachers aroused interest among the colleagues of the participating as well as of<br />
surrounding schools.<br />
As the (in-service) teacher training institutes of both regions were leading<br />
partners of the project all results will have a direct and enduring impact on their<br />
courses and programs. Due to the positive experiences during the project the<br />
participating teachers, headmasters and personnel of the central institutions<br />
are more capable to convince decision makers of the advantages of self-guided<br />
learning with digital media and the necessity of appropriate equipment as well as<br />
organisational and structural procedures. The results were published and distributed<br />
among schools and other educational organizations in the partner regions and it is<br />
available on their website.<br />
