The International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) empirically designed and published educator standards to provide a roadmap for educators on effective technology integration. The purpose of this further study was to determine what empirical evidence demonstrates that the educator practices have a positive impact on student learning.…

Teacher education programs struggle to infuse educational technology (edtec) throughout the curriculum. Edtec faculty can play several roles within the programmatic design of teacher education programs. The purpose of this study was to explore edtec faculty perspectives of technology infusion efforts within their preparation programs. Q…

The current study introduced and assessed the effectiveness of a multimedia-based instructional strategy to enhance the technology integration self-efficacy of 98 special education pre-service teachers. 78% of participants demonstrated growth in their self-efficacy scores. Specifically, pre-service teachers with initial low and medium…

Using formative design experiment, we engaged in iterative rounds of data collection, analysis, and redesign across three rounds to explore and hone 41 preservice-teachers' (PTs') preparation for selecting and integrating digital texts/tools in literacy instruction. Each PT submitted about two videos of literacy tutoring sessions (88 total). These…

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 explored factors that influence teachers' intentions to integrate digital literacy into their classrooms based on the Decomposed Theory of Planned Behavior (DTPB). Path analysis was used to analyze quantitative data collected through an online survey (n = 144) and constant comparison approach was used to analyze open-ended survey…

This article condenses five years of professional development based on Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (TPACK) integration principles, National Council of Teachers of Mathematics Principles to Actions (2014), and ISTE Student and Teacher standards to give a launch point for teachers and teacher educators to integrate 3D modeling…

This article explores preservice teachers' (PSTs), use of a translation app with dual language learners (DLLs). The TPACK (technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge) framework serves as the conceptual framework for the study in order to explore how PSTs integrated technology use with their current pedagogical and content knowledge. The…

Proposed as an effective method for preservice teachers' technology integration development, the flipped approach may afford opportunities to model face-to-face and online instruction with technology, and it may allocate additional class time for learning by design. This study examined a course designed with the flipped model of instruction and…

Most colleges of education employ a standalone technology integration course as a part of their teacher preparation programs. But in a 2016 higher education brief associated with the National Educational Technology Plan, the U.S. Department of Education suggested this approach is limiting for teacher candidates and charged teacher educators to…

The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of personalized professional learning in teachers' comfort level and their self-efficacy toward information and communications technology (ICT). Four hundred and eighteen teachers completed the program of study in its entirety and 247 (59%) of them completed both pre- and post-program…

Understanding more about the relationship between teachers' content-specific pedagogical beliefs and practices with regard to their technology will help teacher educators prepare teachers to integrate technology to support teaching and learning. This study explored the relationship between English as foreign language (EFL) teachers'…

In teacher education programs, modeling from both teacher education faculty and clinical educators in schools can support teacher candidates' adoption of new instructional practices. This study examined how modeling from both teacher education faculty and clinical educators influenced elementary education teacher candidates' development of…

Based on a study at two Swedish universities, this article aimed to identify teacher educators' use of digital tools and subsequent need for digital competence in higher education. Methodically, a digital survey was distributed via e-mail to 405 teacher educators representing two faculties at the two universities; in total, 105 teacher educators…

With a plethora of technology available to support teaching and learning, preservice teachers are expected to become well-versed in technology literacy and competencies through their teacher education programs. This study examined preservice teachers' perceptions of technology competencies, based on newly issued International Society for…
