Abstract

This study examines how early-career teachers' experience and perceived support during the pandemic affected their technology integration self-efficacy and their use of information and communication technology (ICT) after school closure. The results reveal that teachers' positive teaching experiences were associated with their technology integration self-efficacy and their self-reported changes in technology use after the school closure. The results show effects of ICT literacy and general teacher self-efficacy on technology integration self-efficacy. ICT literacy, teacher self-efficacy, and positive experience had indirect effects, whereas support and technology integration self-efficacy had direct effects on changes in teachers’ ICT use for teaching.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
