| Abstract |
The ability to use technology within the context of science is important for science students; however, the integration of technology within science is not implemented consistently across the curriculum, nor across grade and age levels. More insight is needed as to how science and technology are integrated in the classroom. Technology usage takes many forms in the classroom, including educational and instructional technology, programming and computational thinking, mathematics modeling, science-specific tools, and dataset usage. This chapter consists of three main sections: a meta study of forms of technology used in science education, a series of vignettes of actual use of technology in the classroom, and guidance on thoughtful adoption of technology. |
