ICT Adoption Strategy

About  the ICT Adoption Strategy


In support of the eLearning Change Management initiative, the Western Cape Education Department (WCED) presents the initiative to implement an ICT Adoption Strategy.

The ICT Adoption strategy is aimed at creating a transformational pathway for teachers and their participation in school ICT integration and development. This course helps you to adopt technologies and ICT in all schooling environments i.e. administration, school management and operations, and classroom environments (teaching and learning spaces).

As teachers embark on a transformation journey, adopting and adapting to a new change environment is challenging. This course serves to underpin the main aspects of the optimal use of ICT in the whole school environment. It provides a baseline for ICT enhancement, on which further professional development can be built.


The ICT Adoption strategy is divided into 3 phases (ICT Visibility, ICT Landscape, and ICT School Strategy (Transformation Agenda). This course is integrated into the WCED teacher professional developmental pathway and forms the basis for the WCED Transformation Strategy.
