In-service teacher training in ICT in Portugal

This work focuses on the ongoing training of teachers in the area of Information and Communication Technologies developed within the scope of the School Association Training Centers. Based on exploratory and descriptive work carried out using a questionnaire the aim is to contribute to reflection on the specific role that trainers can play in the challenging process of pedagogical use of the digital technologies available today. As there have been no previous studies on teacher trainers in this area in Portugal we sought to find out who is called upon to carry out this role and what their perspectives are on integrating technologies into the curriculum in order to better understand their role in this process.
