abstract
2015 Sense Publishers. All rights reserved. Technology is ever-present, touching almost every part of our lives, communities, and homes. Learning modes have changed greatly as to the sources of information, how we exchange and interact with information and how information shapes and informs us but schools have been slower to change in regard to using the internet and mobile technologies in this participatory learning (Davidson & Goldberg, 2009). The National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE) provides standards for teacher preparation and within those standards is a specific objective: to prepare candidates who can integrate technology into instruction to enhance student learning (NCATE, 2002, p. 4).
