In today’s information era, using ICT to enhance teaching and learning is an active field of research.

Two main vehicles were designed, namely, web-based learning activity design and multimedia lecture design, to facilitate the delivery and transaction.

During 2007, the Secondary National Strategy undertook a research project to develop and trial ways of incorporating ICT into Wave 1 English teaching and to identify the approaches that clearly demonstrate improved pupil progression.

The approaches were developed and trialled by innovative and experienced teachers of English, with a wide range of previous experience of using ICT in the classroom. They identified and developed the key features of effective use of ICT for whole-class teaching and group work and built up a compendium of effective practice.

The project findings have been written up as a collection of thirteen case studies. Each one describes a different approach to the use of ICT in English and is accompanied by relevant resources and weblinks. The starting point for each case study was a group of teachers asking themselves the following questions:

• Which aspects of English could be taught more efficiently or more effectively, using ICT?
• How could use of ICT overcome barriers to learning and progression for specific groups or individuals?
• How could ICT be used to address gaps and weaknesses in my department’s curricular provision and in teaching and learning approaches?
• How might use of ICT enable pupils to become more independent and effective learners?
