The objective of this program is to support school in building their own vision of the potential impact of ICT and the different dimensions of school policy and strategies in supporting the curriculum and pedagogical innovations in the direction of the Curriculum Reform.
This project is a follow up project to the eleadership development program conducted by CITE.
The objectives are:
- to conduct a longitudinal follow up evaluation to find out whether school heads of the e-leadership pilot training have actually implemented their plans in their schools after the pilot training;
- to find out the kinds of difficulties the school heads encountered;
- to find out whether the pilot training course has been successful in stimulating changes that have real impact on the schools after the course completion; and
- to provide support to schools for the implementation of their strategic plans
This program is designed to support school principals in building knowledge, skills and understanding of on the potential impact of ICT in supporting learning and teaching and the key issues.
A consortium for APEC Cyber Education Cooperation(ACEC) has formed under the auspices of the APEC Education Foundation to undertake a project to make available to teachers and administrators in APEC member economies information and services to improve the use of ICT in education.
The purposes of the consortium are as follows:
1. Engage in projects that help to narrow the digital divide in the APEC region.
2. Make available to teachers and administrators in the APEC region information and services to improve education, in particular the use of ICT.
3. Coordinate the work of various APEC economies to enhance multilateral educational cooperation in the region and avoid duplication of projects.
The Centre for Information Technology in School and Teacher Education (CITE) at the University of Hong Kong has specific responsibilities to develop and provide an e-Educational Leadership in ICT program for the APEC community.
