This study examines the effect of teacher education courses for technology integration (TECTI) on preservice teacher attitudes and beliefs from 2007-2017. Technology attitudes are the affective stances leading to observable technology integration behaviors. Technology beliefs are the "pedagogical beliefs" on teaching and learning with…

Secondary mathematics preservice teachers enrolled in a methods class at a large Midwestern University were supported to develop their TPACK knowledge. Instructional tasks included engaging with explorations using technology to support reasoning and sense making, creating entries for a technology portfolio, studying theoretical constructs about…

The science teacher education community plays a prominent role in teacher preparation programs. Particularly, science methods courses emphasize modeling instructional strategies to promote inquiry-based practices. Integrating appropriate educational technology to enhance and support classroom practices should be embedded in these courses. The…

This paper paints a complex portrait of the "wicked problem" of teaching technology integration in a field-based content literacy course in order to analyze how a teacher educator demonstrated a presence (and absence) of Teacher Educator Technology Competencies (TETCs). The study indicates that developing technology competencies in…

This study examined the effect of a teaching mathematics with technology course on preservice elementary teachers' (PSETs) and preservice secondary mathematics teachers' (PSTs) beliefs about teaching with technology and beliefs about the nature of learning and teaching mathematics. All preservice teachers enrolled in the methods course engaged in…

This article reports an empirical study on embedding digital literacies in the language teacher education curriculum with pre-service and in-service teachers enrolled in a graduate-level language teaching method course. Two different types of technology-mediated collaborative tasks were implemented, one being collaborative reading for writing…

Teaching complex studio processes requires methods beyond linear step-by-step instruction and methods more consistent with authentic studio practices. Instructors have to be able to deconstruct their own decision-making processes, processes that have become somewhat automatic through experience, and then use this insight to anticipate how learners…

In this study, we examined the benefits of preparing teacher candidates (TCs) to integrate technology into their future teaching by infusing technology integration instruction into program methods courses. We surveyed 237 TCs who rated perceptions of their technology integration skills, general preparation, self-efficacy for teaching, and so on.…

In response to the COVID 19 pandemic, universities and colleges closed abruptly and teacher educators had little time to move instruction from face-to-face classrooms to digital learning environments. This sudden shift created a myriad of obstacles as instructors worked to retain pedagogically sound and effective instruction through online…

In a 2-year longitudinal study, we examined the effectiveness of a new technology-infused approach for teaching technology integration (TI) skills to teacher candidates. In the new approach, we infused learning to teach with technology into program methods courses. We measured candidates' understanding of various Technological Pedagogical Content…

Adaptive learning programs are frequently used in the K-8 mathematics classroom. These programs provide instruction to students at the appropriate level of difficulty by presenting content, providing feedback, and allowing students to master skills before progressing. The purpose of the study was to seek to interpret how preservice teachers'…

This design was intended to act as a template for technology integration for preservice teachers in an English language arts class. However, the unintended result was a celebration of cultural heritage and increased classroom community. Through the project, 23 preservice teachers used online tools to design digital scrapbook pages that reflected…

The purpose of this study is to understand the phenomenon of the "professional journey" of elementary teacher candidates (ETC) both as learners and as teachers by exploring their learning experiences and practices regarding the virtual reality (VR) platform called Second Life (SL). Using the grounded theory approach, we designed an…

In 2011 all Australian teacher education institutions participated in the Teaching Teachers of the Future project. Each institution introduced initiatives adapted to their particular institutional context. At ACU we adopted an approach based on providing resources reflecting authentic classroom practices coupled with providing support staff to…

Despite the fact that Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is valued as a tool for learning, the modelling for preservice teachers of ICT integration in the curriculum areas is often limited. In the recently approved AITSL standards for Initial Teacher Education Programs, knowledge of ICTs is explicitly mentioned in three of the…
