Overview of TICKIT• In-service teacher education program
• Rural schools in central & southern Indiana
• Supported by participating school systems, Arthur Vining Davis Foundations and Indiana University
• Cohorts of 4-6 teachers from 4-6 school corporations
![Page 4: TICKIT Overview and Research: Rural Teacher Technology Integration](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815d74550346895dcb8256/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
TICKIT Emerged in Fall, 1998
![Page 5: TICKIT Overview and Research: Rural Teacher Technology Integration](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815d74550346895dcb8256/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
TICKIT Goals• Knowledge, skill, & confidence
• Thoughtful integration of technology
• Leadership cadres in schools
• Link schools and university
• Help schools capitalize on their technology investments
![Page 6: TICKIT Overview and Research: Rural Teacher Technology Integration](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815d74550346895dcb8256/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Original Teacher Goal Statement• “Obviously, I’m technologically in the
Dark Ages. My students are so computer savvy that I feel I must at least attempt to catch up with them.” – Debbie White, North Gibson
• “We have a state-of-the-art building, so now we need a state-of-the-art curriculum that uses that technology.” - Linda Seib, Madison
![Page 7: TICKIT Overview and Research: Rural Teacher Technology Integration](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815d74550346895dcb8256/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Program Structure• Teachers attend three workshops at I.U. for a
total of 4 days
• Reports to colleagues and school “giveback”
• Curriculum-based, technology supported classroom unit or lesson each semester
• In-school workshops to support teachers in their unit or lesson design
• Final products are two action research reports

Program Structure• Various online activities using a course
management tool (COW, Virtual University, Blackboard, Web CT, Oncourse)
– Article critiques
– Chats with technology experts (Bernie Dodge, Annette Lamb)
– Free Tool Reviews

TICKIT Program Description:ACOT Principles Used
Situate staff development activities in classrooms Teams of teachers, not individuals Constructivist learning approach modeled by
facilitators Ongoing conversation and reflection about
practice Teachers develop lessons or units, and actually
teach them Provide long-term follow-up support
![Page 10: TICKIT Overview and Research: Rural Teacher Technology Integration](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815d74550346895dcb8256/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The TICKIT Program Model
1) Classroom Curriculum Projects Provide structure for teacher goal-setting and
implementation Apply what learn by developing and teaching units
2) Teacher Choice Do not persuade to use a particular theory or method Urge teachers to integrate technology into what they
already do to add value Present an array of possibilities for integration projects
![Page 11: TICKIT Overview and Research: Rural Teacher Technology Integration](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815d74550346895dcb8256/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
TICKIT Program Model, Con’t
3) Expect Systematic Evaluation, Self-reflection, and Revision of Practice Provide for electronic and face to face collaboration
with colleagues and coaching by TICKIT staff Provide audiences and venues for reports and
reflections on practice4) Provide a Structure for Leadership Cadres to
Assist Other Teachers Locally

General TICKIT Outcomes• Provides structured, project based learning about
thoughtful tech infusion for teachers• Adds to teachers’ competence/confidence• Builds leadership cadres in schools• Provides graduate level recognition of teachers’
accomplishments• Links schools and university• Supports small, rural schools
![Page 42: TICKIT Overview and Research: Rural Teacher Technology Integration](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815d74550346895dcb8256/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Internal Motivation InfluencesI want to be able to help provide the most challenging, interesting lessons for students. As a result of this I need to keep current.
I’m not required to use the technology but do so to learn for myself and help the students.
Even before the TICKIT experience, I was looking for ways to integrate technology into my classroom. I am enthusiastic and committed to this.
![Page 43: TICKIT Overview and Research: Rural Teacher Technology Integration](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815d74550346895dcb8256/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
TICKIT Teacher Voices“This class was very helpful. I gained a lot of confidence as a technology user from this class.”
“The door is now open. I will continue to try to find technological ways to teach them.”
“This was the best program I have ever been involved with as a teacher.”
“Thank you! A poor tired out “old broad” has a new lease on teaching”
![Page 44: TICKIT Overview and Research: Rural Teacher Technology Integration](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815d74550346895dcb8256/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Overall Lessons Learned
• Avoid Teachers Who Are Compelled By School Administrators Into Participating
• Teachers Need a Reasonable Technology Environment In Which to Work
• Teach Technology Use in the Teacher’s Computing Environment, Not Ours
• A Local Leader is Important For a Cohort of Teachers In a School
![Page 45: TICKIT Overview and Research: Rural Teacher Technology Integration](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815d74550346895dcb8256/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Overall Lessons Learned, Con’t• Teachers Respond to Challenge and High
Expectations• Requiring Projects in a Graduate Course
Framework Creates Teacher Stress But Pays Off For Most Teachers
• Asynchronous Conferencing Requires a Lot of Structure and Meaning For Teachers
