However, its introduction into classrooms brings forth concerns ranging from ethics to teacher preparedness. Drawing on Christensen's concept of disruptive innovation, this study aims to assess and…

It is the responsibility of educator preparation programs (EPPs) to develop well-rounded teachers who are capable of integrating technology into their instruction. Most EPPs include instruction in pedagogy, content, and technology as well as a formal field experience; however, there is a gap between the theory learned in courses and application of…

Although teachers agree that technology is beneficial for enhancing math education and pedagogy, there are concerns about incorporating technology into their teaching practices. The problem addressed in this study was that high school teachers are challenged to integrate technology into math instruction. The purpose of this basic qualitative study…

This study aims to investigate the level of self-efficacy amongst instructors regarding the various components of the TPACK model in their teaching within Saudi Arabia. TPACK represents a viable nexus between technology and educational content, creating successful educational technology integration. Existing research demonstrates a need to study…

Multilingual Learners (MLs) can be the recipients of numerous benefits when teachers effectively support technology integration. However, integrating technology into the classroom presents challenges with varying degrees of difficulty. Instructional Technology Leaders (ITLs) and technology professional development (tech-PD) can help teachers with…

This study explored the potential connections between secondary in-service (ISTs) and preservice (PSTs) mathematics teachers' anticipations and their noticing of student thinking in technology-mediated learning environments, a topic with limited prior research. Specifically, the study examined how teachers (ISTs and PSTs) anticipate student…

Educational technology has the potential to be transformative in secondary mathematics classrooms. Recent events have further necessitated a paradigm shift in how technology is used. In this mixed methods action research study, I study the inputs to effective technology use and establish a combined model that shows their interaction with each…

The influx of technology in the high school classroom has increased the demand for technology integration. But teachers struggle to implement technology in their lessons, which suggests that there may be barriers in their knowledge of content and pedagogy in a technology-driven lesson design. The purpose of this basic qualitative study was to…

The purpose of this comparative, bounded, and embedded case study (Creswell & Poth, 2018) is to understand the development and implementation of district administered preparation opportunities which support technology integration in secondary social studies classrooms at Hiawatha Middle and High School, a high achieving suburban school…

Challenges to integrating technology into educational institutions pose a significant issue that impacts students' performance and accomplishments. The research problem addressed through this study was that secondary school physics teachers were challenged to integrate information and communication technology (ICT) in a southwestern state of…

Districts and schools are spending millions of dollars on technology, training, and professional development each year; however, a disconnect between technology use and good pedagogy remains. The one-shot, sit-and-get professional development model has not provided CrossRoads Intermediate School's teachers the necessary skills and knowledge to…

Teachers in K-12 education are increasingly using technology in their courses. However, teachers may struggle to implement technology effectively in their specific subject areas. Existing research demonstrates that there was a need to better support in-service science teachers' technological content knowledge. Accordingly, the purpose of this…

The problem addressed in this study was the limited understanding of urban secondary teachers' specific skills, strategies, and methodologies for digital technology used in a digital learning environment surrounding technological knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, and content knowledge (TPACK). The purpose of this qualitative case study was to…

Negative correspondence with online activity has become an increasing challenge within secondary school settings with the rapid increase in technology. The problem is that secondary educators face multiple challenges in digital citizenship, including a lack of professional training and curriculum support. A gap exists in the literature based on…
