Abstract

We are at a point in the history of education when radical change is possible, and the possibility of that change is directly tied to the impact of the computer (Papert, 1980). Nearly two decades ago, Papert prepared us for the Information Age at the time when excitement for the potential of technology to enhance learning abounded. What he did not state is that “radical changes” are slow to occur in teacher education programs at the university level. Use of computers is pervasive in the personal lives of most college students, yet their professional preparation implementing technology in education reflects only rudimentary levels of sophistication in most teacher training institutions.
