This study examines teachers' motivations for using artificial intelligence (AI) applications in education from the perspective of Expectancy-Value Theory. The Expectancy-Value Theory is a framework used to explain the key factors that influence individuals' motivation to perform a specific task. In this study, the two main components of the…

The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between teachers' self-efficacy perception on ICT and their attitude to ICT usage in the classroom. For this purpose, two scales were used: 'Teachers' Self-efficacy Perception on ICT Scale' and the 'Teachers' Attitude towards ICT Usage Scale'. A total of 42,307 teachers took part in this study.…

The research study examined the ways participants analyzed students' mathematical thinking in a massive online open course focused on teaching mathematics with technology. Across units, participants' posts showed increased attention to student thinking and less focus on issues related to technology. [For the complete proceedings, see ED606531.]

Teachers learn about technology integration through formal, informal, and independent modes, forming their systems of practice for professional learning. Within the context of a technology leadership intervention study, we used multiple linear regressions to investigate relationships between teachers' frequency of participation in each learning…

Creating an ePortfolio throughout an elementary teacher education program supports candidates in reflecting on their knowledge of teaching and the integration of technology in their teaching practice. [Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the Northern Rocky Mountain Educational Research Association (NRMERA) (34th, 2016).]

Mobile learning readiness as a new aspect of technology integration for classroom teachers is confirmed through the findings of this study to be significantly aligned with well-established measures based on older information technologies. The Mobile Learning Readiness Survey (MLRS) generally exhibits the desirable properties of step-wise increases…

(Purpose) This article describes two current trends in Educational Technology: distributed learning and electronic databases. (Findings) Topics addressed in this paper include: (1) distributed learning as a means of professional development; (2) distributed learning for content visualization; (3) usage of distributed learning for educational…

"Technology-Enhanced Formative Assessment" (TEFA) is an innovative pedagogy for teaching secondary school science or mathematics with "classroom response system" technology. "Teacher Learning of TEFA" (TLT) is a five year research project studying teacher change in the context of an intensive, sustained, on-site professional development (PD)…

This paper describes a qualitative study investigating the Capital Area Technology and Inquiry in Education (CATIE) model of situated professional development for technology integration in schools and classrooms. The CATIE model is called "situated" because it places educational technology experts in schools on an ongoing basis where…

The President's Committee of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) (1997) suggested that in order to achieve effective use of computers in schools, a ratio of four to five students per computer was needed. Market Data Retrieval (Education Week, 2001) reported, in the year 2000, the student-computer ratio in U. S. schools dropped to an…

This paper describes the implementation and assessment of a unique model of professional development for teacher educators. Southwest Texas State University's (SWT's) College of Education graduates and certifies more teachers than any other institution in the state; SWT has had a professional development school since 1991. The View and Doing…

A technology professional development initiative was launched in a school district with the goal of extending technology use in the classroom. For teachers to teach expertly, the aim was for them to "be the technology" by modeling technology use in the classroom, applying technology across the curriculum, applying technology to…

"Trek 21: Educating Teachers as Agents of Technological Change," is a 3-year PT3 implementation grant from the United States Department of Education designed to build the capacity in teacher educators (teacher education faculty, professional development school faculty, pre-service interns) to integrate technology into their teaching. The goal of…

Recent changes on the part of the Texas State Board of Educator Certification (SBEC) have impacted educator competencies in regards to technology. Doubt remains, however, as to whether more effective professional development strategies are being employed to facilitate increased technology proficiency among educators. A review of the literature…

The Galileo Educational Network is an innovative educational reform initiative that brings learning to learners. Expert teachers work alongside teachers and students in schools to create new images of engaged learning, technology integration and professional development. This case study is based on the nine schools involved with Galileo in…
