Collaborative Information and Multimedia to Assess Team Interaction in Technology Teacher Preparation

Technology influences elemental communication methods, results, and artifacts (Rogers & Thomas, 1997). Technological innovation obliges educators, students, and consumers to alter approaches to a variety of issues spanning from the way hierarchal relationships are perceived to the manner and means that individuals use to communicate. The utilization of information technology to assist communication and collaboration has become a central theme in information systems research and practice (Olesen & Myers, 1999). Rising information and communication technologies could considerably enhance interaction and collaboration.
