Preparing Teachers to Integrate Technology in Education According to SQD Model: Scale Development and Validation
Education and Information Technologies, v29 n4 p3993-4023 2024
Technology and pedagogy integration is a skill that teachers must possess in order to successfully implement technology in the classroom. In order to evaluate the technology integration training that instructors received, a scale was created in this study within the parameters of the SQD model. We recruited a total of 492 teachers from elementary, middle, and high schools. The scale developed in this study consists of 5 factors (constructs) and 40 items namely "Reflection (Ref)", "Role Model (Rol)", "Collaboration (Col)", "Instructional Design (ID)", and "Authentic Experiences (AutE)". There is evidence that the constructed scale has explained 72.358 percent of the total variation. The Cronbach's alpha internal consistency reliability rating for the total scale was calculated to be 0.97. As a consequence of the analyses conducted, we found that the scale is a valid and reliable measurement instrument that can be used to assess the technology integration training of teachers. We can note that the scale has the potential to make major contributions to the existing literature.
