Apps for All: Education App Integration

The increased use of technology in today's schools has created new possibilities for teachers and their students. Rather than limiting the use of technology based on student ability, it is now possible for teachers to develop integrated multi -literacy lessons. Technology in the form of apps for iPads, iPods, and desktop computers enable teachers to achieve this goal; however, teachers’ perceptions of technology and teacher self-efficacy in relation to technology may influence whether technology is integrated into their lessons. This paper examines primary/junior pre-service teachers’ self-efficacy and perceptions of technology before and after developing app based multi-literacy lesson plan.
