Abstract

Teacher education is a developing arena in which technology plays a primary part. Technology is an area that has historically been a strong midstream career change subject area, through which career changing persons enjoy a feeling of rebirth or classroom teachers move towards a teacher training level within their careers. Although technology is an exciting field, graduate students who are new to the technological realm would benefit from internships within their subject areas of interest. A discussion of real-life experiences of graduate students who have made such a transition through technology internships is a valuable commodity that should be further developed. The discussions between the graduate student technology interns, field-based technology internship director and university faculty member are invaluable areas of information that would be beneficial to expand the knowledge and importance of such experiences.
