| Description |
The Covid-19 Pandemic caused major disruptions in the US education system. These disruptions forced schools to close and education to move to a digital platform. Educators were faced with the challenge of teaching using technology, in a digital classroom, on a global scale. The purpose of this study is to contribute to the understanding of the effects on education during the Covid-19 Pandemic. It explores the perceptions and opinions of teachers on the topic of technology in their classroom based on their experience before and during the Covid-19 Pandemic. It is a qualitative research study of four participants, using a semi-structured interview approach. The participants were current educators. Connections within the research found: there were positive changes to an educator's TPACK; technology usage decisions need to include the age of the students; consuming rather than producing digital content is best for supporting technology integration; technology training and support preferences need consideration. Though limited in scope, the findings point to the need for more research on many of the ideas. |
