About this ebook

Teacher and student access to technology in both schools and at home continues to rise. Due to this increase, there is a need to examine how technology is supporting teaching and learning in STEM classrooms from early childhood through college-level mathematics. To ensure it is utilized appropriately, further study on the use of technology in classrooms where students are learning science, technology, engineering, and mathematics content is required.

Technology Integration and Transformation in STEM Classrooms offers meaningful and comprehensive examples of implementing technology to support STEM teaching and learning and provides a deeper understanding of how to ensure technology is used to enhance the learning environment. The book also details how educators can select effective learning tools for their classrooms. Covering key topics such as student engagement, active learning, teacher leaders, and e-learning, this reference work is ideal for administrators, policymakers, educational leaders, researchers, academicians, scholars, practitioners, instructors, and students.
