Technology and Classroom Practices: An International Study
Robert B. Kozma
Center for Technology in Learning
SRI International

Abstract
This study examines the findings from 174 case studies of innovative pedagogical practices using technology from 28 participating countries. The study looks at how classrooms worldwide are using technology to change the practices of teachers and students. Within many of these classrooms, the use of technological tools and resources supports students as they search for information, design products, and publish results. Teachers create structure, provide advice, and monitor progress. Beyond these commonly exhibited practices, the study identifies specific patterns of classroom practice that are more likely to be associated with reports of certain desirable student outcomes. Examples are provided.
