dc.description.abstract | This study had two purposes. First, to determine the effect of one-on-one follow-up session(s) on teachers' transfer of knowledge to the classroom after attending InTech or a school-sponsored course on technology basics. Georgia InTech is a seven-day course teachers take to learn about INtegrating TECHnology into the classroom. The second purpose was to identify characteristics of these sessions that would improve faculty development in technology. The results of this qualitative study were compiled from the information collected by surveys, interviews with the participants about the activities and suggestions for improvement of the course, observations of the teachers performing their activities, and casual conversations with the participants who attended InTech or the course taught by the researcher. The results indicated teachers had a tendency to use technology more if they receive one-on-one mentoring after attending a largegroup faculty development session. The researcher also gained information useful in making improvements to existing tutorials and faculty development sessions. | en_US |
