"Teachers aged 46-55 years old are most frequent internet users,
while teachers under 25 years old are least frequent users." In een
survey door 'the industry-led website Teachtoday' blijkt
"that younger teachers are less frequent internet users because
they mostly work with pre-school and primary school groups and do
not feel the need to use new digital technologies for their
work."
"Less computer equipment is often available and less emphasis is
placed on new technologies in the curriculum of the schools in many
countries. Nevertheless, 72% of respondents use the internet every
day, regardless of their location or type of connection."
"Another highlight in the findings is that 96% of responding
teachers use a digital tool in class: 24% of teachers use
interactive white boards, 22% virtual learning platforms and 19%
services such as Google Maps and Skype during the lesson, or run a
class/school blog."
"In addition, teachers surveyed believe that children's online
safety is a responsibility that they need to assume: almost 95% of
teachers consider that educating students about the safe and
responsible use of technology is part of their responsibility,
while less than 5% partially disagree or do not agree at all with
this statement. However, in one in three schools online safety is
not a priority. Identity theft rated highest amongst teachers'
concerns (top concern for 63%), not surprisingly followed by their
fear of pupils taking photos in class and disseminating them online
(46%)."
