Technology Refusal: Rationalising the Failure of Student and Beginning Teachers to Use Computers.
Wild, Martyn
British Journal of Educational Technology, v27 n2 p134-43 May 1996
Discusses the apparent failure of information technology (IT) education in preservice teacher education courses. Offers a conceptual framework for investigating and analyzing this failure. Suggests that IT outcomes are likely to be diverse and variable for any one student teacher population and these outcomes need to be considered in the context of individual students' constructions of IT meaning.
