How can we integrate educational technology into the workflow? We will consider three activities: courseware and learning, virtual classroom and teaching, and virtual school and administering. Our own efforts to integrate into the workflow of...

Two popular technology innovations available in higher education institutions are web-based courseware and bibliographic databases. The literature suggests that a student's sense of self-confidence relative to these technologies has a positive...

Many teachers use educational technology less than they might. A model is proposed to account for factors influencing their adoption of this technology. The model is an extension of the Technology Acceptance Model. An example of an experimental...

Many teachers use educational technology less than they might. A model is presented to account for factors influencing their acceptance and usage of technologies they are currently using. The model is an extension of the Technology Acceptance...

The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) represents how users come to accept and use a given technology and can be applied to teachers' use of educational technologies. Here the model is extended to incorporate teachers' perceived usability and self...

This paper describes the results of teacher education candidates' use of a Web-based assessment system including electronic portfolios. A teacher education program adopted a novel Web-based Accountability Model for assessment and learning. The Web...

Discusses management of a research group and examines the role of collaborative hypertext in supporting the maintenance of a hypertext database about hypotheses and research papers. Highlights include hypothesis formulation; paper revision,...

A novel Web-based Accountability Model (WAM) for assessment and learning in a Teacher Education Program was implemented. The objective is to explain the rationale for the WAM model, how it was implemented as the web-based Education Accountability...

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore the current usage and acceptance of classroom technologies by secondary math/science education teachers in one community. Design/methodology/approach: Forty-seven secondary education math and science...

Discusses extended ICA (Integrated Chameleon Architecture), a public domain toolset for generating text-to-hypertext translators. A system called SGML-MUCH has been developed using E-ICA (Extended Integrated Chameleon Architecture) and is presented...

This research examined whether collaborative hypermedia systems could improve upon results achieved in traditional collaborative and individual learning environments without a computer. The students did not feel positively disposed to sharing their...

Develops a probabilistic model of the usage of an awareness-maintaining mechanism in a collaborative hypertext database system. Studies longitudinal time series data of user-database interaction. Finds that the recurring patterns in the occurrences...

Presents three case studies to support the claim that mechanistic groupware can improve efficiency and effectiveness in the classroom. Results indicated that the expertise of the teacher and the motivation of the students are important factors in...
