One of the biggest challenges of teacher professional learning is to get teachers to make that “leap” from the training room (workshop) into the classroom. Teachers often do receive training in new approaches to teaching and learning when attending courses, but many of them cannot replicate it in the classroom. Fewer teachers have the independence, confidence and/or understanding to use technology in the classroom in the same way they witnessed in the training room. What do they lack?
