Abstract:

Technology integration in the classroom and clinical areas has become an important aspect of successful teaching. It has triggered many researchers to investigate different aspects of such integration (e.g., Judson, 2006; Totter et al., 2006; ChanLin et al., 2006; Zhao, 2007; Gulbahar, 2007; Anderson and Maninger, 2007; Abbit and Klett, 2007; & Wood and Ashfield, 2008). This is because it allows learners to acquire more knowledge and skills in less time and allows educational institutions to focus on global learning environments if used appropriately. In addition, it could be an effective teaching tool when used to engage all learners in the learning process.
