Modeling Pre-Service Teachers’ Knowledge Of, Attitudes Toward, and Intentions for Technology...
The study, which combines TAM and TPACK, examines the direct and indirect effects of knowledge of technology integration on pre-service teachers’ attitudes toward technology use (ATU) and intention to integrate technology (IIT) while teaching. Structural equation modeling was applied to model the relationships in a set of latent variables. In total, 470 pre-service teachers preparing for a school-based field practice were invited to fill out a validated questionnaire. Analytic results reveal that TPACK affects pre-service teachers’ ATU, and IIT while teaching. Study findings also indicate that pre-service teachers can combine diverse knowledge obtained from teacher education courses to use technology positively and intentionally to optimize student learning. I recommend that an adequate fit between TPACK and technology integration can serve as a base model for future studies of the ability pre-service teachers to integrate technology and teaching for pre-service teachers.

You had to put your skills to the test in the time shooter 2 , which offered you additional motivation and resources to work with. Your essay is quite impressive, and it has piqued my interest in this subject considerably.
