"This book is not just limited to the use of ICT in the classroom but looks at the wider role of ICT in supporting effective professional development. It will be an invaluable resource that will benefit all trainee teachers on primary training courses. It will also be a reference for lecturers and mentors supporting trainees on these courses as well as NQTs in the early stages of their teaching career."--Jacket.
Information and communications technology (ICT) pervades virtually all domains of modern life-educational, professional, social, and personal. Yet although there have been numerous calls for linkages that enable ICT competencies acquired in one domain to benefit another, this goal has largely remained unrealized. In particular, while technology skills and applications at work could be greatly enhanced by earlier complementary learning at school-particularly in K-12 education, a formative and influential stage in a person's life-little progress has been made on such linkages. At present, the curricula of most U.S. high schools focus on skills in the use of tools such as specific word-processing software or contemporary Internet search engines. Although these kinds of skills are certainly valuable-at least for a while-they comprise just one component, and the most rudimentary component, of ICT competencies. The National Academies held a workshop in October 2005 to address the specifics of ICT learning during the high school years would require an explicit effort to build on that report. The workshop was designed to extend the work begun in the report Being Fluent with Information Technology, which identified key components of ICT fluency and discussed their implications for undergraduate education. ICT Fluency and High Schools summarizes the workshop, which had three primary objectives: (1) to examine the need for updates to the ICT-fluency framework presented in the 1999 study; (2) to identify and analyze the most promising current efforts to provide in high schools many of the ICT competencies required not only in the workplace but also in people's day-to-day functioning as citizens; and (3) to consider what information or research is needed to inform efforts to help high school students develop ICT fluency.

Basic skills tests (based on the National Standards for adult basic skills) were carried out between June 2002 and May 2003, on a sample of over eight thousand adults normally resident in England. The tests were combined with a background questionnaire (social survey). This report provides many detailed statistics but some of the the main findings are noted below. 44 per cent of the respondents achieved Level 2 or above in the literacy assessment, but 16 per cent were classified at Entry level 3. In the numeracy test, 25 per cent achieved Level 2 or above, but 47 per cent were classified at Entry level 3 or below. Overall, 47 per cent were classified at Entry level 3 or below, in either literacy or numeracy, and only 18 per cent achieved Level 2 or above for both literacy and numeracy.
