Overall we come away from this project with a renewed sense of the complexity of evaluating the implementation and impact of technology in teacher education. In the post-PT3 period the federal government turned to large-scale experimental and quasi-experimental evaluations of educational technology but these have produced little in the way of understanding what types of technology work in various content areas under various conditions. PT3 and its approach to evaluation can be viewed as the pioneering period of educational technology evaluation in teacher education. It was a time when evaluators were just beginning to develop appropriate standards that could be used as evaluation criteria. It was a time when the accumulated wisdom of the evaluation field with regards to the primacy of mixed methods and multiple indicators of outcomes was just beginning to take hold. PT3 evaluators understood the importance of treading the line between summative and formative evaluation, and the relationship of evaluation to the improvement of educational practice. In a world where the policymakers now clamor for simple quantitative evaluations linking teacher preparation to pupil achievement scores, we are reminded that the causal chain from teacher preparation to in-service performance and student achievement is fraught with externalities, complexities and a less than equal playing field. Collectively we still have not figured out how technology may be adding value to education beyond any potential impact on superficial standardized test scores. We have as a nation, ignored the call of cognitive psychologists who in 2000 called for a new frame of reference for learner-centered, community-centered , assessment-centered and content-centered educational processes. They understood that the high stakes accountability systems hinder educational innovation and the release of technology's potential to unlock new ways of knowing and learning. Looking back now on the accomplishments of the PT3 program within our current political context, we see a need for more nuanced evaluation models that examine the relationship between pedagogy and technology integration, with a realization that teacher preparation programs will vary in their approaches to both. Some will focus on skills-based approaches, others on the relationship between pedagogical content knowledge and technology integration. The PT3 program served as an important incubator and test-bed of appropriate evaluation practice; we are already looking back at the program for lessons on how to move forward. We hope this volume may serve as a reminder of lessons for the future.

This volume identifies promising learning, teaching, and assessment strategies for the use and assessment of technology in educational settings, specifically: *educational context (e.g., organizational and structural factors that contribute to the effective use of technology in school settings); *promising learning and teaching strategies; *promising technology-based assessment procedures and methods; *policy implementation issues; and *a summary of current research on the effective use of technology in education. Chapter authors represent a variety of perspectives and disciplines, from computer science, cognitive and educational psychology, and educational administration. Authors represent government, business, and university communities from within and outside the U.S. These multiple perspectives contribute to the overall understanding of current technology use in education and help in identifying future research needs. Technology Applications in Education: A Learning View explores the state of the art of technology in K-16 education from a learning perspective rather than a hardware/software view. It is designed for professionals and graduate students in the educational technology, training, assessment/evaluation, school administration, military psychology, and educational psychology communities. This book is characterized in the following montage of factors: *the primacy of learning as a focus for technology implementation; *a focus on technology uses in K-16 education; *a focus on the assessment of both individuals and teams; *a broad variety of methodological approaches from qualitative to instructional design to quantitative (e.g., structural equation modeling); *a need to support the development of technology-based curriculum and tools; and *a need for theory-driven and evaluation studies to increase our knowledge.

Technology plays an integral part in today's classrooms, so there is no question that it should play an equally important role in teacher preparation programs. While technology classes are in place in most institutions, research has shown that some College of Education faculty members, especially those in content areas outside technology, are still resistant to the pedagogical use of technological tools in their curriculum (Britten & Craig, 2006; Trehearn, 2010; Tondeur et al., 2010). Barriers cited range from lack of access to appropriate tools and inadequate professional development to low self-efficacy and negative attitudes toward the effectiveness of technology integration (Reid, 2014). This causes a problem because not only are students missing out on valuable learning experiences that only technology can provide, but effective modeling of pedagogical-based technology has been shown to encourage pre-service teachers' use of technology once in the field (Baylor & Ritchie, 2002; Strudler & Wetzel, 1999, Tondeur, 2011). A large university in the southeastern United States has developed a pedagogy-based, personalized instructional technology professional development model that aims to address this problem by providing faculty members with timely, personalized professional development, resources, and support. The purpose of this qualitative study was to evaluate the effectiveness of this pedagogical-based, personalized, professional development model as it pertains to these particular barriers in hopes of promoting effective technology use in the teacher education program. Frequent participants of this model were interviewed to provide the researcher some insight into their experiences with the lab, best practices, and the professional development's impact on their technology usage. Participants were asked to provide artifacts to demonstrate their increased technology integration and the artifacts did indicate changes in teaching and use of technology. Based on the findings, this model did have an impact on technology usage in the teacher education classroom - not only with the teachers, but with the students as well. Artifacts and participant discussion of students' improvement in class work supported this claim. The study findings revealed five major themes: a) unexpected learning occurs; b) on-demand, personalized professional development is a necessity; c) need for extended opportunities for learning; d) changes in teaching; and e) benefits to students.
