| Abstract: | Conclusion The AECT Project builds on ISTE’s groundbreaking work in the development of technology standards for teachers. The Project
adds specificity and has developed a comprehensive set of tools for pre-service teacher education. Teacher educators can use
these tools to ensure that their graduates leave with the technology skills needed for their selected teaching specialty.
The commitment and leadership demonstrated by the U.S. Department of Education in offering the Preparing Tomorrow’s Teachers
for Technology program has earned their leaders our respect. Through this program the AECT Project has been able to develop
tools and can now offer them at no cost to institutions of higher education. The PT3 Program has galvanized educators across
America, has helped to create important, ongoing collaborations, and has helped to instill an unprecedented mass consciousness
valuing educational change. The partners in the AECT Project are proud to have this opportunity to contribute, in important
ways, to technology integration in teacher education. We are honored to join with all of the other PT3 Projects from across
the Nation in creating teaching and learning opportunities that will shape our educational systems in the 21st century. We
welcome other teacher education institutions and professional associations as partners as we move ahead. For more information,
