This practicum was designed to initiate the use of computers in an elementary setting. There is a need for all teachers to be technologically informed about computers in order to properly and successfully develop a student's capability in technology. This practicum examines computer anxiety and what can be done to eliminate this fear. An analysis of this problem indicated the importance of providing teachers with opportunities to manipulate computers, evaluate software, and incorporate awareness of what is available and how to use it. The problem-solving task takes place in a K-2 elementary school located in a large southwestern metropolitan school district. A total of 27 teachers participated in a 12-week computer training in-service program. The training sessions focused on the use of the computer in the educational setting; basic computer concepts; available computer software; and hands-on experiences. The results of the practicum indicated that all the outcomes were attained. The number of teachers that attended the computer lab increased significantly. Teachers were more familiar with and confident using the computer system. The student population that utilized the computer lab also effectively supplemented classroom activities with a variety of computer programs. The surveys used in the study are included in the appendices. (Contains 32 references.) (Author/JLB)
