  In Poster Session: TED - Poster Session 2

Short Description

Technology initiatives in K-12 education are changing rapidly and generally not accompanied by useful professional development (PD) that results in teachers’ effective use of technology (Project Tomorrow, 2013). In order for teachers to use technology, we need to know teachers’ needs and perceptions of effective PD. This study focused on examining teachers’ PD needs and their perception of effective technology PD to provide more useful PD programs to support K-12 teachers’ technology integration.
