Once More with Feeling: The Absence of Research on Teacher use of Microcomputers

This article presents a brief overview of research relating to teacher use of microcomputers. Emotional responses to microcomputers are compared with those that accompanied the advent of previous technological innovations. A discussion of research deficiencies follows, and suggestions for further research are provided.
