Elementary school teachers' perceptions of the Technology for Children Program (T4C) were the subject of this dissertation. The T4C program involved a learn-by-doing approach to language arts, science, mathematics and social studies instruction in elementary schools. The program involved the development of "Episodes" or "Unit Kits" for teaching a variety of skills and concepts. Kits dealt with such areas as photography, bottle recycling, rocketry and weaving. The dissertation surveyed teachers' attitudes concerning three goals of the program: improvement in students' level of self-awareness, understanding of technology, and academic skills. A questionnaire was designed to explore attitudes towards these goals and was administered to 24 teachers selected randomly from first through sixth grade classrooms in the Bayonne, New Jersey, school district. Teacher ratings of 509 students indicated that the teachers perceived significant growth in children's self-awareness and understanding of technology, but not in academic skill development (in comparison with control groups). The dissertation also included an extensive literature review describing the development of the T4C program and surveying related projects in the United States and Great Britain. (BD)
