Relationships Among Radiologic Science Educators' Years Of Teaching Experience, Technological Self-Efficacy, And Digital Technology Use In The Classroom, Jessica Anne Church
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
The purpose of this quantitative, correlational study was to examine the relationships among radiologic science educators’ years of teaching experience, technological self-efficacy, and digital technology use in the classroom. The underuse of technology in higher education is an issue. Students use technology every day and radiologic science students, in particular, are expected to use it proficiently in training and practice. It is important that these students are exposed in the classroom, as technologies beneficial to learning are available.
