21. Retooling and Resourcing: Intergration of ICT in Science Congress Prep. Gioko, A. (2010) Empirical Evidence: Benefits to teachers ICT allows teachers to engage and motivate pupils to a greater degree (Betts, 2003) The internet increases access to authentic data (Osborne and Hennessy, 2003) Simulations enable teachers to show experiments that would not otherwise be possible (McFarlane and Sakellariou, 2002) Data logging and digital video recording allow access to new sources of data in a wider range of experimental settings (Newton, 2000) ICT provides quicker and more accurate data collection, saving lesson time and giving better quality results (Osborne and Hennessy, 2003)

22. Retooling and Resourcing: Intergration of ICT in Science Congress Prep. Gioko, A. (2010) Empirical Evidence: Benefits for pupils The mechanical aspects of practical work are reduced, allowing pupils to concentrate on interpreting and analyzing data (McFarlane and Sakellariou, 2002) Visual modes of presentation aid understanding of concepts and processes (Trindade et al., 2002) Instant feedback enables pupils to refine experiments and hypotheses (La Velle et al., 2003) ICT can provide a greater capacity for project-based learning dealing with topics relevant to pupils’ interests (Mistler-Jackson and Songer, 2000) There are more opportunities for independent, self-directed learning (La Velle et al., 2003)

23. Retooling and Resourcing: Intergration of ICT in Science Congress Prep. Gioko, A. (2010) Empirical Evidence: Benefits for pupils School networks and the internet can provide access to learning resources outside of school hours (Lewis, 2003) Electronic communication enables pupils to become part of a community of learners (McFarlane and Sakellariou, 2002) ICT provides opportunities for collaboration with peers and professional scientists (Mistler-Jackson and Songer, 2000)

24. Retooling and Resourcing: Intergration of ICT in Science Congress Prep. Gioko, A. (2010) Reflections ICT should be used only when appropriate to lesson objectives (Betts,2003) Pupils need autonomy to explore and test their ideas (La Velle et al., 2003) Teachers should encourage discussion and interaction between pupils (Newton, 2000) Teachers should ensure that pupils have the necessary information literacy and analytical skills (Osborne and Hennessy, 2003) Time saved through ICT needs to be used effectively (Newton, 2000) Training should be provided in a range of different ICT applications, with time for teachers to develop confidence by exploring them independently (Osborne and Hennessy, 2003) Laboratory design must allow ICT to be integrated safely and easily into practical work (Brown and Harper, 2003) Reliability and the provision of technical support are crucial (Osborne and Hennessy, 2003).
