Technology Integration: Do They or Don't They? A Self-Report Survey from PreK through 5th Grade Professional Educators
Fletcher, Donna
AACE Journal, v14 n3 p207-219 2006
The practice of integrating technology into classroom instruction is mandated by the State of Texas (TEA, 2005, http://www.tea.state.tx.us/teks/index.html). Using a self-report survey, this study investigated technology integration practices on two elementary campuses in a suburban, small-town independent school district, which resides on the outskirts of a large southeastern metropolitan city. Results indicated that the professional educators were not implementing technology within their classroom learning environments at the instructor-centered level, with the exception of gathering information for lesson planning. Results also indicated that professional educators were not implementing technology within the classroom-learning environment at the learner-centered level. (Contains 4 tables.)
