Abstract
Teacher education programs need to move teacher candidates beyond simple technology skill acquisition to a more advanced level where they are able to apply teaching methods that facilitate technology integration in their classrooms. Teacher candidates are often introduced to technology training early in their teacher education programs where they are provided with instruction that focuses primarily on software applications. This practice often leads to technology use that is isolated from content, methodology and pedagogy. Teacher candidates need technology training that supports student-centered integration in curriculum areas that can be replicated in their future classrooms. Teacher candidates need to work with a model curriculum that supports a variety of technologies. Offering teacher candidates an opportunity to work with foundational curriculum that crosses grade levels and content areas promotes and supports technology integration and fosters the development of well planned technology-rich lessons and classroom activities.
