Abstract:

It is anticipated that teachers who have greater access to professional development, instructional resources, and administrative support will report more positive perceptions of computer-based reading interventions than those with limited preparation. Teaching experience is expected to play a moderating role, with less experienced teachers showing greater openness to technology-based tools. In contrast, more experienced teachers may demonstrate a stronger preference for traditional instructional approaches.
