Purpose
• To train ATEP teachers in a technology rich environment.
• To provide the necessary tools for this level of integration.
• To provide the necessary training and PD for this level of integration.
• To conduct meaningful research related to our experiences.

A Quick Snapshot of Our Students…• In some ways, the demographics of this
group are similar to the Faculty overall…– 14 females, 5 males (19 total)– 17 seek to teach within Alberta when they’re
done.– Almost all express a desire to “make a
difference” or having a “lifelong passion for teaching” as the reason they are in the program.

A Quick Snapshot of Our Students…• In other ways they are NOT…
– Average age is 34.8– 13 of them transferred into the program from
other post-secondary institutions.

Methods
• Combination of work with instructors and students.
• Students receive PD on the use of their computers, software, etc…
• Instructors have the option to integrate one or more projectsor activities in their course.

Instructor Variations
• Some opt to teach the activity themselves with no support.
• Some opt to teach the activity themselves with training from myself.
• Some opt to teach the activity with my support in the classroom.
• Some will opt to have me come in and do the activity with students.

Some Research Goals
• To describe how the students’ understanding of the concept of “technology integration” evolves over time.
• To identify best practicesin our model.
• To identify specific cultural issues with technology and Aboriginal pre-service teachers.

Organic Project
• As challenges arise, new research ideas emerge.
• E.g./ How do students feel about courses where the instructor taught the activity vs. ones where I did?

The Technology Projects
• Focus on integrated project-based learning.
• Focus on cross-curricular learning.
• Focus on “time tested” activities (though not necessary).

Project Development
• Projects were identified from online sources: they are what teachers are doing out there right now.
• Projects are listed “without prejudice”.• Projects are mapped at the subject area
level with curriculum levels integrated (will be online soon).

From Map to Web Site
• A “living site” with project ideas.
• Goal to serve the entire faculty, not just the ATEP program.
• Will eventually incorporate student exemplars (when ethics clears).

Early Challenges
• Multi-institutional technical support• Cultural differences (e.g./ student registrations
and laptops)• Acquisition of technology• Cross-curricular
projects and change• Instructor time• Distance• Student frustration• Gender issues?

Early Successes
• Flexible and enthusiastic students and instructors.
• Wide range of student ages and abilities.
• Early interactions have shown a sense of “fearlessness”.
• Students have been very willing to work with each other when they need help.
