One case study: 39 year veteran teacher still used the computer as a reward system. she felt that even though she was technology sound, she wasn't comfortable integrating it in the classroom. One case study: teacher directed and she just supplemented with technology. One case study: Studdent centered. Teacher was the facilitator/organizer. kids did projects. DIdn 't do tests, they didn't use computers as tutorials. She felt that this made the students more independent. She made tecnology decisions basesd on her educational beliefs and that culminated in highly flexible active student environment. Quantitative: They looked at 2 things: teacher's beliefs and technology practices and they looked at other factors related to technology practices. Qualitative: Did they change beliefs after PD and use in the classroom/technology. have found in a greater variety of manners and in a much less conventional manner than we are accustomed to.
