This book was released on 2008-11-11 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a need to understand the factors correlating with teachers' instructional use of computers, because much of the present research focuses on students rather than teachers. This study examines several factors relating to the use of computers in the classroom by teachers. The factors examined include teacher attitudes, emotions, beliefs, and outside influences. This was done by a review of the present literature, administering two surveys, and analyzing the survey data. Questionnaires were distributed to faculty at five randomly selected high schools in a Midwest city participating in the study. Data from the survey was then examined to determine which factors correlate with teacher computer use in the classroom. The results of this study will help improve understanding of teachers' instructional computer use.

This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Study from the year 2016 in the subject Pedagogy - Media Pedagogy, , language: English, abstract: Traditional or conventional teachers have a phobia of using technology like a fear of looking foolish, fear of asking for help, fear of not ‘catching on’ quickly enough, and fear of not being able to be effective with the technology in instructional settings. It is important to understand that these fears were self-imposed and self-generated, but very real nevertheless. Technology has an essential role to play in reducing the disparities that exist between the developed and developing countries. Computers are especially important in this context, because so many computer applications have a direct bearing on some of the main facets of the development process and reflect certain aspects of the technology that has facilitated the growth of the economically advanced countries. This study investigates the different attitudes towards computers and analyses them.

Book excerpt: Teachers’ attitudes have been a subject of study and interest for many years. Originally published in 1986, this bibliography attempts to review the large field of research between the years 1965 and 1984. To identify all the sources of information, and to list documents that discuss research on teachers’ attitudes. It does not include an assessment of the quality of the research reported in the listed documents, however, the value is in its comprehensiveness. Users of the bibliography can locate the listed studies and then evaluate the studies using criteria relevant to their individual purposes.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Constructivism, a modern learning philosophy that focuses on a student's experiences within the learning environment rather than on an instructor's influence, can attribute its roots, in part, to the time of John Dewey: the early 1900s. While many educators espouse a belief and commitment to constructivist instructional design, few of them actively engage in its classroom implementation. A number of studies have taken place attempting to determine why teachers are not implementing constructivist-designed lessons in the classroom, and why teachers are not implementing computer technology tools at a "high level." The literature investigates several factors that can potentially lead to both better integration of educational technology, and better instruction. The purpose of this study was to investigate a potential relationship between the experiences that high school teachers have with their district-assigned computers, and what effect, if any, those experiences had on their willingness to integrate computer technology into classroom instruction, as well as their beliefs surrounding the effectiveness of computer technology to enhance instruction and improve learning. Social constructivism was selected as the research theory for this study. The results show that there is no significant difference in faculty experiences with their computers based on the computing platform (operating system), and no difference regarding faculty's willingness to integrate technology, or their beliefs about computer technology integration's effectiveness to improve instruction. However, the Rasch analysis used in this study was able to determine what computing tasks faculty find easy to respond positively toward, and what tasks are difficult to respond to with positive affirmation. This information provides data that can measure computing task difficulty, and enable the creation of a strata of computing tasks that can be used to: assist with future studies regarding faculty technology integration, determine high-level technology skills and how best to structure professional development, and what computer technology tools might be best for constructivist-lesson design and implementation. Constructivist lessons focus on students creating their own learning, and this study data can help pinpoint relevant computing tasks that can assist with that end objective.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine high school teachers' attitudes and perceptions about their experiences with staff development. Ninety-six teachers from three high schools in southeastern Pennsylvania volunteered to participate in this qualitative case study. The data sources used in the study included a researcher prepared staff development survey, a teacher efficacy inventory, and personal interviews. Results of the study indicated that high school teachers viewed staff development as necessary and useful to them when it was properly organized and implemented, but viewed it as unimportant and wasteful when not so. High school teachers valued staff development most when it was relevant, useful and well implemented. They perceived it to be of little value and even fostered feelings of resentment and frustration when staff development was not relevant or poorly conducted. High school teachers placed a high value on staff development that pertained to their subject area, was presented by someone with high school teaching experience, was delivered in small groups or breakout sessions and, was of a short duration of 1-4 hours. The opportunity to select their staff development activities increased the value of staff development for these high school teachers. There appeared to be several differences in perceptions, views, and preferences of staff development among teacher sub groups. Differences regarding several aspects of the timing, delivery, and overall value of staff development were most evident. These differences occurred most often between gender, teaching experience, and efficacy groups.

This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The global adoption of information and communication technology (ICT) has been the landmark of the educational scene for the last two decades. A main feature of most technology initiatives worldwide is their focus on the technology itself and their inattentiveness to the human factor involved in the implementation process. The overall purpose of this study was to investigate the attitudes of EFL teachers in Syrian high schools toward ICT in education and to explore the relationship of teachers' attitudes with a selected set of variables. These variables included computer attributes, cultural perceptions, computer competence, computer access, and demographic variables (including computer training background). Teachers' attitudes were examined from two related theoretical frameworks: Rogers's (1995) Diffusion of Innovations and Ajzen and Fishbein's (1980) Model of Reasoned Action. Both quantitative and qualitative methods were employed to collect data on the population of EFL teachers in the city of Hims during the 2003-2004 school year (N=887). A questionnaire was developed and distributed to 326 sample teachers selected randomly from the population. The survey stage was followed by in-depth phone interviews with a purposeful sample of 15 teachers. Results from both quantitative and qualitative data indicated that the participants had positive attitudes toward ICT in education. While the participants had somewhat positive perceptions of the attributes of computers, they were relatively neutral about the cultural relevance of ICT to Syrian society and schools. The teachers also reported low levels of computer competence, access, and training. Significant positive correlations existed between teachers' attitudes toward ICT and five independent variables, including computer attributes, cultural perceptions, computer competence, computer access, and computer training. Multiple regression analysis indicated that only the first three of the above independent variables had a significant predictive value of computer attitudes toward ICT. The results indicated that 0.58% of the variance in computer attitude was explained by the independent variables included in this study. Based on the findings, it was recommended that policy-makers sustain teachers' positive attitudes toward ICT, offer them more training opportunities, and take steps to alleviate the concerns of some teachers about the culturally improper material on the web.
