The contribution of new technologies to the training and professional development of teachers: development and organization issues
Abstract
Nowadays the issue of professional development of teachers extends to the formation of modern structures and methodological approaches. The debate focuses on new flexible forms of training that include distance learning programs using new technologies combined with live lessons. The work provides a bibliographic overview - a study of examples and applications, as recorded in open and distance learning conferences and in the "Open Education" magazine. The research reflects the emergence of new innovative models for designing, developing and organizing relevant interventions, encouraging active participation in processes, facilitating the combination of work and learning, not subject to local and time constraints, and responding to the specific needs of the participants. Their application and exploitation opens up prospects for upgrading the professionalism of teachers, provided that the specifications of an integrated educational model, incorporating technological, organizational and pedagogical characteristics, are formulated.
