11. Numbers are everything

19. General impressions Hard to do work without the funds
But… lack of funding doesn’t stop schools from forming a strategy and a vision…on the contrary
Involved persons can turn schools around
Hardware is important and not yet ‘ubiquitous’
Schools who are not yet that advanced: learn lessons. Strategy first.

20. Slow but positive cycle
Same mistakes can be made several times: e.g. hardware purchase without strategy
No good use without strategy and vision
… vision befor hardware
… BUT: ‘best’ visions informed by many mistakes
National policies DO influence what happens in schools
… is it the intended outcome?
… negative impact (lack of funds, vision, support)
… link to national priorities (personalised learning, lll, equity, basic skills, integration)

21. Less digital naive Digital literacy teachers increased
… Awareness of what is needed/lacking
… More confident users
… More reflective
Pupils do well
… but could they do better?
… most happy with ICT use
… advanced skills, differentiation in skills
… integration ofsocial aspect of learning/social sw
… some critical information consumers

22. A black box with a twist
Impact and outcomes a black box in most schools
… what leads to results?
… what is the contribution of a tool?
Learning environments ‘traditional with a twist’
… more interaction inside /outside
… more self-directed/autonomous
… better availability of sources

23. Blended resources Mix of traditional and new
Mix of self-made and from others
ICT allows to share, but…
Integration, synergies lacking
Quality on the up
Who makes it?
Different teachers different needs
