The study reported here is a secondary analysis of data collected in 10 schools as
part of Israel’s participation in two international studies: IEA’s SITES Module 2, focusing on
innovative pedagogical practices at the classroom level, and the OECD/CERI case studies of
ICT and organizational innovation, focusing on ICT-related innovations at the school system
level. We identify and analyze two patterns of ICT-based curricular innovations: “islands of
innovation” and “school-wide implementations.” In the analysis of both patterns we focus on
(a) the levels and domains of innovation reached in schools; (b) the communication agents
and school variables affecting the diffusion of the innovation; and (c) the role of internal and
external factors affecting the diffusion of the innovation. In the discussion we elaborate the
potential value of sustainable islands of innovation models as agents of innovation, and the
similarities and differences between both patterns of ICT implementation in schools.
