Abstract

This short paper is an initial report on the challenges facing the instructor of the educational computing course as colleges and universities strive to prepare technology-capable teachers who in turn can produce technology-capable students. These challenges include the changes in entry-level computing skills for preservice teachers, along with the many new innovations in hardware, software, and course delivery tools. These dramatic changes pose wonderful opportunities and demanding challenges for the instructor of the educational computing course and for teacher education programs.
