Abstract: One-to-one learning environments create unique classroom dynamics due to today’s emerging technologies and ubiquitous computing. Therefore, it is important to clearly articulate the competencies that teachers need to be successful in facilitating student-centered teaching approaches in these classrooms. Through the use of the Delphi method, this study utilizes a panel of experts to construct an inventory of teaching competencies needed to facilitate student-centered instruction in these environments. In this session, the researcher will discuss the research design of the study, share preliminary results of initial Delphi rounds, and invite discussion as to the implications of these results to the field.
