q2 · i? · associational · r?
A correlational finding about pre-service teacher preparation reported in the Pre-Service Programs section, citing survey data on teacher preparation programs; the report notes more than 70 percent of programs require three or more credit hours of technology instruction. No correlation coefficient is printed.
"Importantly, these integrated instructional hours more positively correlate with technology skills and the ability to integrate information technology than do stand-alone information technology courses."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Teachers receiving 11 or more hours of training on integrating digital content report almost double the reliance on software and the Internet compared with untrained teachers — the general claim this finding bears on, with the studies behind it
- Pre-service primary teachers' science teaching self-efficacy beliefs correlate weakly but positively with their ability to determine suitable taxonomy, strategy, and method-techniques — related
- Pre-study survey found most art teachers spend 1-3 hours daily planning and struggle to integrate and assess teaching resources across platforms — related
- AI training for pre-service primary teachers is predominantly short-term interventions embedded within existing courses rather than standalone AI courses — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
