Abstract

Preliminary surveys conducted by the authors suggest that students at the secondary school level are likely to feel much more at ease with the vocabulary of information technology than the pre-service teachers who will soon be expected to integrate technology into their teaching. We present a discussion of our survey instruments and first results and we explain why we feel teachers should understand the sources of technology jargon, which we call "CyberJive."
