			=Pedagogy and ICT - A Review of the Literature=
			The [[Pedagogy and ICT a Review of the Literature]] article (Loveless, 2009; published by BECTA) covers the relationship between pedagogy and ICT use.
			{{adaptedfrom\|Pedagogy and ICT a Review of the Literature\|Introduction\|This review attempts to offer frameworks for thinking about the ‘What?’, ‘How?' and 'Why?’ questions of teaching with information and communications technologies (ICT), offering a range of tools to help us to understand our teaching in local and global contexts, to help us, as Freire urged, to ‘read the world’ of our practice (Freire and Macedo, 1987). It covers a range of approaches to pedagogy, relating these to ICT and some particular issues raised in the literature}}
