The Telematics for Teacher Training (T3) project will encourage over 4,000 teachers to adopt telecommunications and new technologies in schools and universities across the European Union. It will establish courses for teachers within a growing consortium of universities and commercial services, which will continue to develop beyond the millennium. Primary and secondary teachers, their teacher trainers and library staff will develop new practices together enhancing the quality of learning and knowledge of Europe within the curriculum. Best practice will be refined for teachers of mathematics, languages, science and technology in several European languages and many cultures.
T3 will focus on supporting the new approach to education and training within the European Union: lifelong learning. Teachers will model this practice in front of their students. Teachers’ skills in both Telematics applications and in tutoring students how to learn for themselves will be available, even in remote rural areas, with the use of new technologies.
