Abstract

As technology integration becomes more prevalent in foreign language classrooms, successful technology integration strategies also become more critical. This paper reports a study on technology integration in a Private Mandarin Chinese Institute in Central Texas. By way of interview with teachers, the study reveals successful strategies teachers can apply when integrating computer technology into foreign language classrooms. The result also shows challenges teachers encounter. Based on the findings, suggestions for mitigating the obstacles are proposed.
