This is our paper with Hakan Hoca (my master advisor) about Fatih Project. It discusses how we can implement a technology-rich learning environment and whether we can implement in schools involved in FATİH Project

Hi all, don't forget creating your SimSchool accounts for technology implementation at class this week, please :)

Using simulations in teacher education is not a brandnew approach. http://www.jstor.org/discover/10.2307/1084325?uid=2&uid=4&sid=21102135384967

Virtual worlds in teacher education: http://edtechisland.wetpaint.com/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=w07GtOvnIU0

I think in virtual schools teacher's role is not same as face-to-face instruction, instead a guidance interacting with students socially. In this role, teacher challenges with dialogue and interaction. New skills and knowledge require for this role of teacher such as delivering content with operating technology, external aspects of learning related to technology and internal cognitive aspects of learning (Gunawardena and McIsaac, 2003). Also, teacher should provide appropriate instruction in terms of numbers of students (Gunawardena and McIsaac, 2003).

Halil thank you very much :) for the article about TPACK in Special Education. It is very useful for wikibooks chapter assignment.

I've just found this paper about TPACK in special education, unfortunately I couldn't reach the full paper. so, I'm so curious about it.

This article suggests some research topics to develop literature for special education and technology

This article empahizes benefits of TPACK in integrating technology into special education and also suggests implications for preservice teacher education.

Does integrating technology into teacher education guarantee preservice teachers to use technology in their inservice lives?

It's a conference about teacher education policy and conference focuses on Learning Spaces with Technology in Teaching and Teacher Education this year.

Some examples of integrating technology into education
