• In Event: D&D/TIL- Learning Design Considerations (h)

Short Description

Preservice teachers’ attitudes towards technology integration influence their current motivation and future behavior in teaching. This quasi-experimental study applied one of the most widely used positive psychology interventions - Best Possible Self - into an undergraduate class to measure its effect in improving preservice teachers’ attitudes towards technology integration. While results show no statistically significant difference between the control and treatment groups, the treatment group has more positive trends than the control group.
