Abstract :
Produced by the Research Center for Educational Technology at Kent State University, the CD ROM, "Technology and education: the research on where we have been-a vision of where we are going", is designed for staff developers in a K-12 environment, university faculty working with preservice educators, and practicing teachers. The purpose of this session is to demonstrate the use of an interactive CD-ROM that was developed to actively engage teachers in reflective dialogue regarding best practice research, their teaching philosophies, and instructional practices.
