Educator Perspectives on the Instructional Effects of One-to-one Computing Implementation
Educator Perspectives on the Instructional Effects of One-to-one Computing Implementation
The
purpose of this study was to examine educator’s perceptions regarding the
quality of student learning during the implementation of a one-to-one computing
program in a private secondary school in central Illinois. The sample of the study consisted of 26 teachers, administrators, and
counselors who worked with 320
students during one-to-one technology
implementation program. First a Likert type
scale was administered and then interviews were conducted with the participants
to find out their observations, perceptions, and opinions with regard to
student learning. The results show that most educators believe that
student learning has slightly improved with the implementation of one-to-one
technology program
