Abstract

Many major reports on efforts to reform teacher education programs have cited how colleges of education are doing little to prepare future teachers to successfully use technology in their classroom. Written from three unique perspectives, this paper describes how one college program is proceeding through the change process in order to integrate technology throughout its teacher education curriculum. The authors discuss the college's 3-year infusion plan and provide suggestions and recommendations for others seeking change.
