Abstract
This qualitative study reports on the Arizona Classrooms of Tomorrow Today project, a component of a Preparing Tomorrow's Teachers to Use Technology project. In conjunction with five partner school districts, Arizona State University West developed five technology-rich K-8 classrooms that serve as models for preservice students and university instructors. This study reports on the changes occurring as the AZCOTT teachers learn to teach in technology rich classrooms. Changes were described in teacher practices, student attitudes, and classroom management. Generally, the researchers found that technology has become an integral part of each classroom. Factors contributing to implementing change in these classrooms are discussed. The researchers also discuss the progress made toward using these classrooms as models for preservice students.
