Abstract
Can teachers be sure that they are making a difference using ICT? As schools increase their use of ICT in teaching and learning critical analysis is increasingly needed of how the technologies are integrated within the curriculum. This paper explains the basis on which decisions need to be made for the effective use of ICT to support learning in schools. The development and validation of the Learning Environment Attributes dimension of the ‘New ICT Supporting Schooling’ framework is presented within the authentic context of a large evaluation study. This provides a structure and tools to support teachers in planning and reflection and school leaders in setting appropriate policy and resource provision.
