The paper analyses the need of an institutional change of schools and universities in
order to adapt to the current requirements of networked and knowledge society. The
e-Learning phenomenon and the ICT driven global educational reform are analyzed
as well in parallel with the needs of implementing new pedagogy models. The paper
puts its attention on the Web 2.0 technologies and e-infrastructures and their impact
on education and research in schools and universities. The teacher’s professional
qualification designed to meet the new challenges is considered as a key problem
for a successful penetration of this phenomenon in the schools. It is emphasized
on the importance of designing a life-long teacher training strategy adapted to the
new achievements in the technology enhanced learning research and the new learning
theories. Building social skills and competencies appropriate to work in a Web 2.0
based learning environment and other global social software is recommended to be
included both in the school curricula and the corresponding teacher development
curricula. *2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 97U70, 97U80, 97B20, 97B40, 97C80.
