Abstract

ABSTRACTThe study identifies motivational characteristics of empowerment among teachers in leadership positions involving information and communications technology (ICT) implementation in schools. The participants were 24 teachers who were candidates for an Information and Communications Technology Leadership Award. Analysis of the in-depth interviews with the teachers who led the information and communications technology implementation in schools made it possible to identify the pattern of empowerment and the characteristics that influenced the creation of this pattern. The findings relate to three chronological aspects: (1) the preconditions that preceded the creation of the empowerment pattern; (2) the factors that affected the creation of the empowerment pattern and their manifestations; and (3) a description of the empowerment pattern as an internal and external aspect and its manifestations. This description of empowerment among teachers in leadership positions involving ICT implementation may help policymakers understand what factors are essential for a school to successfully embrace innovative pedagogical projects.
