Abstract

Preservice teachers live in a unique world today with the blending of traditional instructional materials for literacy and a variety of high-tech learning technologies present in every 21st century classroom. In the current landscape, teachers are required to learn a variety of technology programs, to know their benefits, and to seamlessly implement them alongside the many pedagogies for maintaining a classroom. This includes teaching a variety of learning strategies and balancing blended online vs. in-person classrooms. This heavy responsibility is compounded by the problem facing many literacy educators today (i.e., how best to instruct within a technology platform and continue to motivate learners to read and to monitor their own use of literacy strategies for comprehension). This chapter outlines a study and subsequent findings of the impact of computer technology for reading strategies instruction with pre-adolescents and its impact for preservice teacher education programs.
