Abstract: The LevTech study will 

document and describe the technology 

experiences incorporated into preservice teacher preparation programs, as 

well as document how teachers 

currently use technology in their 

classrooms. Clearance is being requested 

for the multiple case study research 

design, sampling strategy, and data 

collection activities to be undertaken by 

the LevTech study. These collections 

will gather in-depth information on ten 

teacher education programs. Data 

collected from the selected teacher 

education programs will include a 

maximum of 15 individual interviews 

(educational technology faculty, 

methods faculty, preservice teachers), as 

well as a maximum of ten induction 

teacher graduates of the teacher 

education program (graduated in the last 

five years). Within each case, we will 

collect information from two different

educational technology faculty, methods 

faculty, preservice teachers) and (2) 

induction teacher graduates of the 

teacher education program (1–5 years).
