Abstract
There are a number of tensions and debates embedded in any consideration of the teacher, ICT and the future. In this complex climate, it is possible to argue that too little attention has been paid to the act of teaching. With widely available and different forms of information and knowledge, learners still need to learn how to learn and to think. Teachers are the essential part of ensuring this process of transformation. Their professional judgement and voice are essential in this process.
