Aligning with Practice: Examining the Effects of a Practice-based Educational Technology Course on Preservice Teachers’ Potential to Teach with Technology

• In Event: TED- Preservice Development & Tools (h)

Short Description

This study examines the design of a face-to-face educational technology course for preservice teachers. Using Grossman et al.’s (2009) pedagogies of practice, the course emphasizes educational technology in the local context, teaching/learning with technology, and designing instruction for technology-rich environments. The course’s design was evaluated using a pre/post TPACK survey, lesson plan rubric scores, and student reflections. Results indicate growth in students’ TPACK self-perceptions and application after the completion of the course.
