Abstract

This paper focuses on one teacher preparation program's efforts to address a lack of congruence between modeling the effective use of technology in university coursework and appropriate use of technology during the teacher candidates' field experiences (Strudler, McKinney, & Jones, 1998). Questionnaires were administered on technology proficiency and different uses of technology to 54 elementary mentor teachers who participated in a "clinical faculty" class designed to strengthen their mentoring of pre-service teachers. The mentor teachers' responses indicated self-perceptions of proficiency, areas of need for further training, and contradictions related to the teachers' self-perceptions of their skills and abilities
