Technologies for Education
Technologies for Education: Potential, Parameters and Prospects To "tech" or not to "tech" education is not the question. The real question is how to harvest the power of technology to meet the challenges of the 21st century and make education relevant, responsive, and effective for anyone, anywhere, anytime, says a new UNESCO publication entitled Technologies for Education: Potential, Parameters and Prospects.

Egypt's software play
As part of its National Plan for Telecom and Information, the Egyptian Government is aiming to take the lead in "Arabizing" software for the Middle East region. With a population of over 62 million people, Egypt only has around 5,000 expert programmers and system engineers. In an effort to address this shortfall, the National Plan sets out the creation of a National Institute for Information Technology that will eventually train 5,000 IT literate students per year. Realizing that it could not achieve this feat alone, the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (MCIT) has solicited the help of a number of companies, including Cisco, IBM and Microsoft. By cultivating domestic talent with the help of experienced multinational companies, the country could become a hub for Arabic software for the Middle East. [892]

Information and communication technologies in teacher education
This book provides resources to help teacher educators, administrators and policy-makers better apply ICTs to teacher education programmes. It begins with the premise that the teaching profession is evolving from an emphasis on teacher-centred, lecture-based instruction to studentcentred, interactive learning environments, and that ICTs are key in this transition. The authors state that designing and implementing successful ICT-enabled teacher education programmes is the key to fundamental, wide-ranging educational reforms. [389]

The Dynamics of Technologies in Education
Education has always lived a tension between two functions. On the one hand education is a matter of assuring continuity, passing on what is known. On the other, it is a matter of fostering creativity and change, that is, propelling learners into the unknown. [387]

Teacher Professional Development In the use of Technology
Teacher professional development is absolutely essential if technology provided to schools is to be used effectively. Simply put, spending scarce resources on informational technology hardware and software without financing teacher professional development as well is wasteful. [386]
