An Analysis of Teachers' Processes of Technology Appropriation in Classroom

摘要

This paper aims to investigate the "sense" of appropriation of the iPad use by teachers in a professional secondary school. As iPads are increasingly employed in the teaching process in classroom the authors intend to understand how the process of teachers 'appropriation of iPad use is perceived as a learning tool. Through the analysis of focus groups with teachers, they intend to detect changes in the sense of appropriation of the iPad in classroom during a school year. The findings of their study allow to identify facilitating and hindering elements that support the process of teachers 'appropriation of iPads and open further spaces to investigate the role of new technologies in teaching/learning contexts.
