- Abstract
This Portfolio is a collection of a dissertation and four research folio pieces which explore curriculum, assessment and reporting change relating to multimodal teaching and learning and the availability of information and communications technologies in schools. An accompanying CD ROM contains multimodal material related to the case study. The Portfolio demonstrates: that teachers can and should learn new ways of working with students; that there are manageable ways of reflecting the multimodal nature of teaching and learning through assessment and reporting; that wider curriculum change can be achieved by focussing on areas that teachers view as 'mission-critical' such as reporting; and that change in schools is enhanced by the involvement of the stakeholders. Research, organisational development, and other professional activities in the area of the enhancement of learning through the use of information and communication technologies, primarily within the context of a particular school, are documented within this Portfolio.
