Abstract
As an increasing number of schools are being connected to the Internet and equipped with telematics tools, there is a growing fear among teachers who do not know how to make effective use of the machines. In this paper, we are concerned to pinpoint through our day to day practice as teacher trainers, and our involvement in European projects, the competencies that emerged from our activities with our students. The paper defines the essential role of the teacher regarding ICT, examines the changing role of the teacher in an ICT-based school environment and a networked society, and calls for vigilance in the use and integration of ICT in education and teacher training.
