Teachers' Conceptions of the Internet and the World Wide Web: A Representational Toolkit as a Model of Expertise.
Levin, James A.; Stuve, Matthew J.; Jacobson, Michael J.
Journal of Educational Computing Research, v21 n1 p1-23 1999
To examine the role of teachers' conceptual representations of the Internet and World Wide Web, a survey and 10 case studies were conducted among pre- and in-service teachers enrolled in university courses. Results reveal diverse, plausible representations, not related to level of expertise. Experts were found to have a "representational toolkit" containing many different representations to be used for different purposes. (AEF)
