An Evaluation of Technology Integration in Teacher Education for Bilingual and English as a Second Language Education Majors

AbstractThis article describes the team-planning, delivery, and evaluation of two courses required for English as a second language (ESL) and bilingual education (BLE) majors: Computers in Education and Language Arts Methods. The study revealed that technology was embedded in the context of language arts and that beginning teachers gained confidence in their ability to integrate technology into ESL and BLE language arts classrooms. Although beginning teachers perceived the course objectives as valuable, they reported that they had not completely achieved the objectives. Recommended course changes are discussed.
