The document is a reflection from Jennifer Chang Wathall on her learning from Module 1.
She discusses how effective technology integration depends more on how tools are used to enhance learning rather than just the tools themselves. She was also surprised but glad to learn about the importance of social interactions, interpersonal skills, and supportive colleagues to successful technology innovation. Strong teacher skills like technological proficiency, pedagogical compatibility, and social awareness are the most influential factors for classroom technology success according to studies. Professional development should help teachers reflect on their beliefs and develop skills like social awareness to encourage technology integration.
