1. Julie Mueller, Wilfrid Laurier University, Canada

Abstract: This study investigates the integration of technology and the creation of TPACK in pre-service teachers through examination and evaluation of an in-house approach utilizing peer support and just-in-time instruction. The round table will briefly present the structure of the initiatives with visual and audio examples of the supporting tools (i.e., the technology wiki, the newsletters, and training materials). In addition, an evaluation of its effectiveness will be presented through qualitative analysis of interviews and open-ended survey questions, as well as quantitative measures of outcomes using a TPACK survey (Schmidt et al., 2009).
