Professional Development for Technology Integration
Professional development regarding teaching with technology should be designed to advance an educator’s teaching practice. These studies document experiences of formal learning as well as learning that is part of natural circumstances (informal). Professional developers and educators can apply the findings from these studies about constructivist-based professional development methods to impact teaching effectiveness.
