Abstract

Previous research has identified graduating teachers' dispositions towards teaching with Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs) as a significant issue for teacher preparation programs. Both increased community access to ICTs and changes to the teacher preparation program may have affected those dispositions in recent years. Although it is not clear which factors have contributed most to the change in dispositions, it is clear that teachers graduating from the class of 2002 are better prepared for, and more positively disposed towards, integrating ICTs into their teaching.
