Using the Threshold Concepts Framework, I explore places where faculty frequently get stuck when attempting to adopt new technologies. They may be held back by preconceptions that technology is superfluous to traditional teaching methods or believe that they must understand the technology perfectly before introducing it into their teaching. Drawing on formal and informal sources of information, faculty developers can facilitate movement across these thresholds to the realization that experimenting with technology is a necessary approach to understanding how integral it is to the teaching and learning process.
