Synopses & Reviews
This new fifth edition of Integrating Educational Technology into Teaching, by M.D. Roblyer and Aaron H. Doering, builds upon the success of the unique aspects and approach of previous editions. Beginning with Chapter 2, every chapter reinforces the authors' five-step Technology Integration Planning Model (TIP Model) through a series of features and activities:
- Technology Integration Examples and Making the Case boxes introduce teachers to the model.
- Technology Integration Lessons and Adapting for Special Needs boxes help teachers plan for effective technology integration.
- End-of-chapter Technology Integration Workshops provide hands-on practice with technology tools, developmentally appropriate classroom-based scenarios (The TIP Model in Action), and MyEducationLab website activities that help teachers visualize and apply what they have learned.
The only book on the market to offer specific content area chapters, the fifth edition introduces the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework in Chapter 2 and incorporates it within these content-specific chapters to encourage teachers to reflect on the three domains to develop the knowledge and skills to overcome roadblocks to integration.

Review
"I have found the text to be very insightful and informative regarding new technologies for the classroom. I thoroughly enjoyed the addition of computer integration in the content areas in chapters 9-15. MyEducationLab really sealed the deal for me as an instructor. After exploring this site, I found out that my other text was leaving me in the dark with just the basic test bank and PowerPoints. MyEducationLab is a great resource for both instructor and students!"

"MyEducationLab complements the textbook. If I were teaching a strictly online class, I would have my students using this section extensively. The videos were not too long, informative and the added feature of typing the dialogue was a necessity. We use webquest.org in my class as well. I'm glad to see that was included. The weblinks are invaluable! This book is such a refreshing change from the book we are using now (Shelly/Cashman). It probably would be one of the textbooks that a soon-to-be teacher would hold onto and consult as often as needed! Definitely a keepr!!

Synopsis
Integrating Educational Technology into Teaching, 5e, the leading Educational Technology text on the market, introduces the concept of Technology Integration, shows pre-service teachers how to plan for Technology Integration, and offers them the opportunity to practice Technology Integration when designing curriculum to support and shape learning.
Integrating Educational Technology into Teaching, 5e incorporates two complementary instructional models to create a comprehensive technology integration framework built on strong research and proven techniques. The Technology Integration Planning Model (TIP Model) shows teachers how to create an environment in which technology can effectively enhance learning. While the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework, new for the 5th edition, provides teachers with the knowledge and skills to overcome obstacles when integrating technology into their curriculum--across the content areas. The text balances the “why” and “how” of using technology to support and shape the future of technology in education.
