109. Removing The Teacher Fear Factor

110. Removing The Teacher Fear Factor
You don’t know what you don’t know.

111. Removing The Teacher Fear Factor
You don’t know what you don’t know.
You don’t have to know everything about it (ICT) but you
do have to know what it can do.

112. Removing The Teacher Fear Factor
You don’t know what you don’t know.
You don’t have to know everything about it (ICT) but you
do have to know what it can do.
If you don’t have an awareness of what you can do with
ICT, you’ll never plan for your students to use it.
