The Digital Education Revolution is a key policy plank of the Rudd government. It is intended to develop students’ capabilities to learn with technologies. Little Australian research though, has focused upon the views and expectations of students about their learning that includes technologies. This paper draws on the findings from the 2008 research project, Listening to students and educators views of learning with technologies. This Australian national research project, funded by the Department for Education, Employment and Workplace Relations (DEEWR) set out to listen to and analyse what Australian students in primary and secondary schools, in vocational education and training (VET) institutions, and pre-service and early career teachers, views and expectations are concerning learning with technologies. The research involved collecting data through online surveys and focus groups with each cohort of students. This paper presents some of findings from this research and raises some of issues and challenges facing Australian educators to prepare pre-service teachers to meaningfully include technologies into their future students’ learning.
