Factors that Influence Technology Integration: A Synthesis of Path Model Studies

• In Event: TED- Factors that Influence Technology Integration: A Synthesis of Path Model Studies

Short Description

This paper synthesizes findings across 10 path model studies on the relationships among the factors that influence K-12 teachers’ use of technology in their classrooms (e.g, beliefs, readiness, support, experience). Using a visual matrix of the findings across the 10 studies (Walker & Leary, 2018), we found that teacher beliefs and confidence both directly affect their use of technology. Recommendations for professional development and future research will be discussed.
