This study was designed for investigating elementary school pre-service teachers' attitude toward technology and invention. This study employed two learning strategies: Integrative STEM(Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) learning and e-portfolio strategies. A class developed for elementary school pre-service teachers was implemented by four experts (one major instructor and three experts). A valid and reliable self-reporting instrument was administered to 34 elementary school pre-service teachers. A pre-test and post-test strategy of three key domains (information and computer competency, attitude toward teaching technology and invention, and perception toward ESTE (Elementary School Technology Education) was established. Statistical analysis techniques were primarily used to describe the attitudinal transitions and qualitative analysis was used to support the research findings. The research findings were as follows: 1) Pre-service teachers' information and computer competencies were significantly improved through this class. During the e-portfolio work, students could improve their competencies of using several simple digital hardware and software, writing the blog and/or bulletin board, and searching for relevant information from internet. 2) Their beliefs toward teaching technology and invention in elementary school level were positively changed through this class. They perceived that technological problem solving contained the integrative feature with other school subjects like science, mathematics, language arts, social studies, etc. 3) The e-portfolio and integrative learning strategies were found to be helpful for students' reflective thinking and self-directed learning in their projects.
Abstract
This study was designed for investigating elementary school pre-service teachers' attitude toward technology and invention.
