Preservice English Teachers and Technology: A Consideration of Weblogs for the English Classroom
Shoffner, Melanie
Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education (CITE Journal), v7 n4 p245-255 2007
Teaching with technology is a complex issue, at best, bound by issues of access, funding, support and time for both students and teachers (Young & Bush, 2004). When English teachers effectively integrate technology into their classrooms, however, they have the opportunity to positively engage students in the learning process. Considering the specific technology of weblogs, this article will explore the need for preservice teachers to construct a working pedagogy that includes the use of technology within the content area for teaching and learning.
