Past research has focused on preservice teachers\u2019 attitudes towards technology in the classroom, intention to integrate, and the impact of specific instructional strategies. Much research has also been dedicated to the development and measurement of preservice teachers\u2019 Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK). Little research has explored the process of learning to integrate technology within the context of the entire teacher education program, including the instructional technology course, methods courses, and field experiences. The goal of this constructivist grounded theory study was to illuminate this process from the perspective of the preservice teacher. Data were collected through interviews with 12 preservice teachers attending five higher education institutions in the state of Nebraska. A theoretical framework representing the process of learning to integrate technology was developed based on the participants\u2019 perspectives. The theoretical framework provides insight into the preservice teacher\u2019s experience, identifies areas that teacher education programs can target in order to potentially improve their learning process, and contributes new ideas for future research.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fedon, A.
