Problem
Teachers and Administrators agree that 21st century skills are important to integrate
Teachers and Administrators disagree on the definition (level and quality) of technology integration
How do different groups differ in their definition of technology integration?Do administrators, teachers, and students agree on the amount of use of technology tools for curricular activities?How do administrators, teachers, and students differ in their perception of technology integration?
Significance: Investigate why there is a gap between teachers and administrators

Interview Responses
Lack of consistency in defining technology integration
Teacher ThemesMention of students
Technology should engage students
No mention of thinking skills
Administrator ThemesNo mention of students - focus on teacher actions
Technology should expand what is currently done in the classroom
Interview - Why are there differences?
TeachersTechnology Users get noticed
Administrators are not in classroom enough
AdministratorsTeachers may lack training or knowledge
