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.
