Computers have typically been used for traditional methods of teaching (e.g., drill and practice and computer education-Becker, 1983; Becker, 1984); although the more recent data suggest that some teachers are using technology in more innovative ways (e.g., solve problems, conduct research- Becker, 1999; Fulton, 1997). She and Jen Becker have connected classrooms where students learn in a comfortable environment. Their 21st century classrooms are an experiment for the school, and a way for them to learn what new ideas could work in other classes. The potential of technology to realize 21st century pedagogies is recognized by many. In reality however teachers rarely utilize technology in their instructional practice. Are teachers not prepared for technology-enhanced teaching and learning in the 21sr century? Do their pedagogies not match with the affordances of technology? A competent teacher does not only need basic ICT knowledge.
