Technology-enhanced classroom

Draft

Am not so sure about the title of this article

Definition

• Technology-enhanced classroom or Technology-Integrated Classroom can refer to ICT-enhanced classroom teaching, Technology Integrated into Learning and Teaching, ICT in schools, Pedagogy related to ICT etc. In this article we use this definition (but we may move contents else place some day).

Alternatively, it also can just refer to equipment used in a classroom: E.g.:

• classrooms that have a minimum amount of hardware (e.g. 2-3 PCs for learners and an overhead projector)
• classrooms that have specific devices (e.g. an electronic whiteboard or lots of PCs plus some control station for the teacher).

See also the computer-integrated classroom which refers to more ambitious ICT-in-the-classroom designs.
