Information Technologies and the Training of Teachers

Abstracts English: Teaching and learning in the information society is undergoing radical change. The new challenges make it necessary to rethink the ways of educating teachers so that they can cope with them.

As a practical application of this argument, we outline a project for an integrated Internet service.
