professional development will be on developing the confidence and competence
of teachers, building upon their previous education and professional
development in applying ICT to teaching.
Professional development in this stage will encourage teachers to collaborate
in developing their subject curriculum and identifying innovative
teaching methodologies. Opportunities for students and teachers to experiment
to identify preferred learning styles and differentiated pathways is
encouraged. Infusing ICT across the curriculum to enhance learning and
the management of learning leads teachers to an understanding of how to
transform their teaching practice as well as the learning of their students.
General competencies include, and build on, those at the applying stage.
Examples of general teacher competencies include the following:

learning objectives; and choosing from among a wide range of ICT tools
those that are most appropriate to stimulate students’ learning:
• choosing ICT tools and teaching methods that integrate ICT
