abstract

  • This paper describes the support systems, financial support, current use of technology, and infrastructure issues at selected institutions of higher education (IHE) and in K-12 public schools in the State of Texas, United States. Discussion is provided on how current practitioners in public schools and institutions of higher education that prepare pre-service teachers for these schools match regarding technology. In depth discussion is provided on two surveys - one of higher education institutions and one of public schools - along with a discussion of the findings as they relate to the ability of institutions of higher education to support K-12 schools through the preparation of future teachers well equipped to use and comfortable with current and emerging technologies.
