Abstract

As computer technology getting more and more advanced, educators have accepted the assumption that computer has a potential to renovate education and is necessary to enhance effective teaching and learning. However, computer is a tool and the value of this tool in education does not depend solely on its qualities (Maddux, Johnson, and Willis, 1997). It is its users, teachers and students, who make the difference. Teachers' creative use of available computing tools makes the teaching and learning more meaningful. Life long and self-paced learning is the key to the effectiveness of implementation. This paper is to review pre- and in-service teachers' computing literacy training in the past decades, discuss the current trends of computing education for teachers, and explore another perspective of implementation in pre- and in-service teachers' education.
