Technology Engineering Science Instruction in the Information Age: Integrating Instructional Technology in K12 Education

This paper is a summary of the use of the Technology Engineering in K12 education that integrates science and technology to positively impact students and teachers. The Technology Enhanced Learning in Science Center (or TELS) is a research consortium that uses dynamic and innovative technologybased solutions combined with science & mathematics curricula in an innovative way to empower teachers and enhance student learning. As a best practice, the TELS model can provide academicians with new teaching strategies that seamlessly integrate technology into the classroom to increase student retention and transfer of science and mathematics concepts.
