Abstract

It is widely recognized that action research leads to a series of benefits for teachers including improved practice, heightened professionalism and activism for positive educational change. More recent research has also suggested that teacher inquiry is a vehicle through which teachers can systematically and intentionally study the ways that technology integration impacts student learning and as a lens through which teachers may experience conceptual change regarding their beliefs about technology integration practices. However, lessons learned from teacher inquiries are rarely shared beyond the school or district level. ARTI (Action Research for Technology Integration) is an online tool designed to support the aggregation of action research results from many classrooms. This presentations (1) describes the 3-year evolution of ARTI, (2) shares classroom-based outcomes of technology use in 17 Florida districts and (3) describes plans making ARTI available for wide scale use by prospective and practicing teachers.
