The Technology Integration Assessment Instrument: Understanding Planned Use of Technology by Classroom Teachers
Britten, Jody S.; Cassady, Jerrel C.
Computers in the Schools, v22 n3-4 p49-61 Jan 2006
Cognizant of the difficulty teachers face in attempting to integrate computers into instructional settings, the authors propose a new technology integration assessment strategy that can guide individual development or be used to track programmatic change. The Technology Integration Assessment Instrument (TIAI) explores seven dimensions of planning with specific attention to levels of technology integration. Repeated use of the TIAI is anticipated to promote individuals' abilities to track their own growth, as well as provide a standard method for documenting the application of Type II uses of educational computing. This paper presents the TIAI, identifying the method of analyzing lesson plans employed in this system, as well as addressing likely uses of the instrument by teachers, administrators, and program evaluators.
