Abstract

This paper uses the data from a survey among school teachers to conduct a series of factor analysis to test the reliability of a set of items to determine the factors deemed important in technology integration among teachers. The results suggest that there are specific dimensions of items that can be used to determine the factors perceived by teachers as important for technology integration into their classrooms. Five clusters of factors were identified, including: Social Impact, Curriculum Concerns, Interest & Experience, and Personal Need. (Contains 2 tables.)
