Lloyd, Margaret M.; Albion, Peter R. – Journal of Technology and Teacher Education, 2009
Teacher technophobia is analyzed using an activity systems framework and we contend that technophobic teachers make the mistake of confusing and collapsing the tool into the object thereby figuratively altering the geometry of the classic activity system triangle. Three case studies of technophobic teachers are reviewed and compared with…
