Abstract
This study examined the changes in preservice teachers' attitudes toward computers and confidence in educational use of computers during throughout a three-course sequence of educational technology. Preliminary results indicated that preservice teachers had positive attitudes toward technology. Statistically significant differences were found on three factors on perceived confidence in technology usability. This result could help confirm our hypothesis that technology adoption takes time. However, no conclusive evidence could be obtained from this research due to various extraneous events.
