The Role of Technology in the Community College ESL Classroom
Stephanie Serrano Vera
ProQuest LLC, Ed.D. Dissertation, New Jersey City University
This case study was to designed to identify the types of educational technology being used by ESL faculty at a suburban New Jersey community college and at what level in the substitution, augmentation, modification, and redefinition (SAMR) structure is technology being incorporated. Finally, faculty attitudes and influences regarding educational technology were studied. A qualitative case-study approach was used; data from surveys and interviews were collected and examined for common themes. In addition, course syllabi were analyzed for educational technology use and evaluations were made according to the SAMR framework. The findings of this study demonstrate that ESL instructors at this community college are working hard to incorporate instructional technology into their classes. All study participants are using educational technology at the minimal levels, substitution and augmentation, but many are also integrating technology at the modification and redefinition levels of the SAMR framework.
