The Really Useful ICT Book has been written with primary classroom teachers and teachers-in-training in mind. The National Primary Strategy has had an impact in almost all primary schools, and teachers are now very familiar with its teaching objectives and strategies. However, many teachers are now looking to develop their practice in a more flexible way and develop their use of ICT at the same time, in order to improve the learning of their pupils.

This book helps teachers understand the National Curriculum for ICT as being more than just a skills development programme. This process will help them to understand not just how, but also why, ICT can enhance their teaching practice and the learning opportunities for their pupils. The book will contain many examples to clearly demonstrate the links between National Curriculum requirements and the benefits for teaching and learning.

Providing both inventive ideas for the classroom together with an accessible summary of the research and theories underpinning them, which can often act as a springboard for further inspiration, this book will be an essential buy for all primary teachers.
