| Summary: | <p dir="ltr">Adapting Rogers’ Diffusion of Innovation theory (2003) to reflect the South African context, we investigated teacher-led strategies to enhance <a href="" target="_blank">information and communication technology </a>(ICT) integration practices of history teachers. Despite national policies and strategic plans, actual uptake by history teachers is dissimilar. We wanted to design a history teacher-led strategic ICT integration framework for schools in the district to reinforce history teachers’ integration practices. The sample consisted of 6 teachers from Mangaung schools with varying access to ICT infrastructure. Various components of the strategic framework emerged from interviews, subsequently incorporated into a broader framework. Empirical research suggests that this strategy alone could not improve history teachers’ ICT integration practices. Conversely, we found that an integration framework first requires a foundation before implementing ICT in history classrooms. We recommend that the DBE consider the rationale of this framework. Future research could monitor its implementation and impact for adaptation and refinement.</p> |
