by Gary Beauchamp (Author)
This invaluable new text on ICT offers support, guidance and inspiration to anyone training to teach or currently teaching in primary schools, as well as those studying Education Studies at undergraduate or postgraduate level.
The book encourages teachers - and pupils - to realise the potential of the full range of ICT resources. It provides primary teachers with the knowledge, skills and confidence to plan, teach and assess their own ICT lessons, as well as to use ICT creatively across the whole curriculum.
This is not a 'how to' guide or collection of lesson plans, but instead balances research-based theory with everyday experiences, challenging you to understand teaching methods and how they translates into a range of suitable teaching strategies for the whole class, small group or individual using ICT.

Book Overview:
The text demonstrates an excellent understanding of theory and its relevance to pedagogy in the primary school. This is an invaluable book for all reflective practitioners who are engaged in using ICT to enhance high quality teaching and learning in the primary years. - Peter Mayne, Institute of Education, University of Worcester
In this book, Beauchamp provides us with a logical and needed progression from current texts about ICT in primary schools. Scholarly without being intimidatingly theoretical, this book skilfully combines pedagogical principles with a practical focus, making the 'why' as important as the 'what' in planning the use of ICT in the primary classroom. Key issues, such as e-safety, planning for inclusion and cross-curricular uses of ICT, are considered alongside subject-specific chapters that provide an insight into the integration of ICT across the primary curriculum. This is a book that should be read by all primary teachers in training, but which will also provide food for thought for many more experienced teachers. - Paul Warwick, Lecturer in ICT and Primary Science, Faculty of Education, University of Cambridge
Professor Gary Beauchamp is Director of Research and Professor of Education in the School of Education at Cardiff Metropolitan University.
