Abstract

Reports on a study of 17 professors from graduate schools of education. Finds that: (1) 71% experienced a perspective transformation in the context of learning and using technology for educational purposes; and (2) learning technology by itself does not seem to facilitate perspective transformation–rather, classroom practice and reflection prompt professors to think about new ways of teaching and learning.
