Abstract

Many educational institutions identify "assisting faculty [and students] integrate technology" into instruction as one of the most important issues confronting their campuses (Charp, 2003; Green, 2003), especially the use of multimedia. In the author's institution, this integration issue has been the focus in most of its programs to enhance teaching and learning. Realizing the need for technology training to prepare future teachers for the workplace, the College of Education's Bonisteel Technology Lab, through a joint education and technology grant, worked with a professor and the literacy students to infuse technology in their lessons. This paper discusses: (a) the framework used in integrating multimedia in a literacy class, (b) the new learning theories and current practices, (c) the integration process, and (d) the findings and outcomes based on students' products and experiences in the integration process.
