Revisiting Teacher Adoption Of Technology: Research Implications And Recommendations For Successful Full Technology Integration

Abstract

Most teachers are still failing to fully integrate technologies in their classrooms to improve student achievement. If certain conditions exist, however, they are more likely to accept and use appropriate technologies in significant instructional ways. Relevant professional development and continuous access to needed resources are two significant factors contributing to technology adoption. Other factors evolving from research as well as recommendations for integration are presented.
