Abstract

Abstract: This study evaluated how five preservice physical science teachers incorporated interactive display systems (IDS) during student teaching. The IDS consisted of a computer with Internet access, an LCD projector, and a SmartBoard?. Two physics and three chemistry preservice teachers received instruction on how to integrate the IDS into their teaching. Data sources included classroom observations, entrance and exit interviews, reflections, lesson plans, and digital resources (videos, simulations, animations, etc.). Results indicate that the preservice teacher participants regularly used the IDS to facilitate reforms-based science teaching. The results of this study support the use of interactive display systems in a one-computer classroom and describe effective ways to use educational technology, including for visualization, making abstract concepts more concrete and increasing student engagement.
