Abstract

Pre-service elementary teachers experience initial technology integration instruction in an early methods class (IRED 320) that is blocked with the Language Arts methodology course (EDCI 300), allowing candidates to implement computer skills as they are acquiring them. Authentic integration assignments based on a self-selected children's book provide opportunities for students to use a variety of technology resources. Candidates present and evaluate their designs in field experience classrooms. Upon completion of field experiences, candidates analyze each activity and discuss its impact on the students' learning.
