Abstract

This paper addresses reasons for grounding students' instructional experiences in a beginning educational computing course in practice. The author describes advantages for incorporating techniques from qualitative research into these experiences to sensitize students to effective uses of technology and to promote thinking about ways they will use technology in their classrooms. Examples of instructional experiences used by the author in a beginning educational computing course are included. These activities involve preservice teachers interacting with and providing resources for technology-using inservice teachers, children, and teacher education faculty.
