Phases 1 and 2 of this induction project have been completed.
Phase 1 - 2004-2006
The IT Network ITT Induction Project, funded by the Training and Development Agency for Schools (TDA) from 2004 until 2006, developed this website and provided an induction programme for new secondary ICT tutors each year.
The project was guided by a steering group with representatives drawn from the major UK ICT subject associations.
The team of contributors who developed the content for the website in Phase 1 were:
Richard Bennett, University of Chester
Margaret Hancock, Independent consultant
Michael Hammond, University of Warwick
Steve Kennewell, University of Wales Swansea
David Longman, Richard Clarke and Lynne Jones, University of Wales Newport
David Short, Park View School, Chester le Street, Durham
Neil Stanley, Liverpool John Moores University
Georgina Stein and Nyree Scott, client [c&it] research, development & publication unit, Canterbury Christ Church University College
Mary Webb, Kings College, London
John Woollard, University of Southampton
Phase 2 - 2006 - 2009
ITTE took over the project from the IT Network in the summer of 2006. The TDA agreed to fund the project for a further three years. Whilst the brief was similar to that in phase 1, the project scope was widened to include primary and post-16 ICT tutors. We also aimed to give more recognition to the fact that trainee teachers, too, may find the materials useful. A summary of the ITTE project proposal, including proposed new resources, can be downloaded here:
