This study reviews existing research conducted between 2007 and 2017, regarding integrating technology in K-12 classrooms and preparing K-12 teachers for using technology in their classrooms. The present study examines studies concerning the integration of technology in K-12 classrooms and investigates professional development models for encouraging pre-service and in-service teachers to use technology. This study synthesizes quantitative, qualitative and mixed methods studies in order to have a comprehensive view of existing research. Based on a review of 45 articles concerning integrating technology in K-12 classrooms, and 50 articles focusing on K-12 teachers' professional development regarding technology, this review found that there were relatively few empirical studies conducted in actual K-12 classrooms and relatively few studies of embedded professional development. This study seeks to contribute to current research focused on integrating technology in K-12 classrooms and on K-12 teachers' professional development about teaching with technology. It recommends more empirical research in K-12 classrooms and more research on K-12 teachers' embedded professional learning about technology.

Dr. Kathleen MacMillan, AVC Equine Ambulatory Service, will give a community workshop on Wednesday, July 11, about strangles, a highly contagious bacterial infection that affects the upper respiratory system of the horse. The presentation will take place in AVC鈥檚 Lecture Theatre A at 7 p.m. She will talk about the symptoms of strangles, diagnosis and treatment, and ways to reduce the risk of infection. Last month, several cases of strangles were diagnosed in horses in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and PEI. The bacteria causing the illness is easily transmitted by nose-to-nose contact between horses or from things that come in contact with nasal discharge from a sick horse, such as clothing, hands, or equipment. Everyone is welcome. Admission is free, and refreshments will be served. For more information, call (902) 566-0589.

The Faculty of Sustainable Design Engineering invites the UPEI community to attend a special summer research seminar on "Soil Health, Carbon Farming, and Fixing our Nitrogen Problem," on Tuesday, July 17 at 1:30 pm in room 202 of Sustainable Design Engineering building. Dr. David Burton, Professor of Environmental Sciences, Dalhousie University, will be presenting as part of his research collaborations with Dr. Aitazaz Farooque of the FSDE. All are welcome! Abstract: Agriculture is being challenged on multiple fronts to improve its environmental footprint - reducing its impact on surrounding ecosystems and providing environmental goods and services in addition to traditional role of food production. Potato production in PEI provides an excellent case study to examine how this transition can be achieved. Fortunately agricultural production systems provide the opportunity not only to 鈥渄o good鈥� for the neighbours, but also improve our capacity to produce a safe nutritious food product. This requires a rethink of how we do agriculture with greater emphasis on long-term goals of sustainable production. Three research initiatives will be discussed to build 鈥淪oil Health鈥�, store carbon in agricultural soils, and improve nitrogen use efficiency in potato production systems in PEI.
