Introduction to Overview

The curriculum is in a constant state of rapid change. The role of teachers in implementing curriculum innovation is critical, though in the absence of suitable training, the intentions of the innovation may be transformed. The STTIS project is concerned with researching these transformations, and developing materials for training teachers in curriculum innovation.

These training materials are based on research into the nature of teachers’ transformations when using computer models and simulations. They provide activities to enable teachers to learn about the innovations and about the nature of the research into their implementation, and to take account of these ideas in their own implementation of the innovation.
