Abstract
This paper will describe the conduct of a Masters course in Information and Communications Technology (ICT) in a Vietnamese university. The authors of this paper comprised the teaching and unit planning team. Engaging higher degree students in Masters level programs in the use of ICT in teaching and learning would appear to be diving directly into the "second wave," bypassing the potentially constraining experiences of the "first wave." The findings of this paper will be drawn from anecdotal observations and from student responses to an electronic discussion forum. This paper will conclude that diving into the "second wave" of technology is fraught with many challenges and requires major school and curriculum reform.
