Introduction
This article concerns technology integration with regard to pre-service music teacher
education. It argues that technology integration, as presented by the CAEP standards and
accreditation process, is worthy of critical examination. CAEP is the Council for the
Accreditation of Educator Preparation. It was recognized in 2014 by the Council for Higher
rP
Fo
Education Accreditation (CHEA 2016). CAEP sets policy by providing standards, accreditation,
and program review for Educator Preparation Providers. Having replaced the National Council
for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE) and Teacher Education Accreditation Council
(TEAC) accreditation processes, CAEP is the governing body solely in charge of accreditation

service music teacher education program itself may be a concentration within the department of
Elementary education and/or Middle level education and/or Secondary education. University

education departments across the nation will pursue CAEP accreditation for their teacher
preparation programs. Pre-service music teacher education programs under the purview of the
On
university Education department pursuing CAEP accreditation therefore are included within

The Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation vocalizes the importance of
technology integration across teacher preparation curricula (Martin 2015, 18). CAEP Standard
3.4 states that the integration of technology needs to occur in the development of content
knowledge, pedagogical content knowledge, and pedagogical skills. While the CAEP standards
do not offer definition of technology integration, they present two very different perspectives of
2
technology integration. From one perspective, technology integration is presented as a crosscutting theme. To cross-cut means to interweave or thread (CAEP 2015). Regarding technology
integration, material artifacts are interwoven with social practices (Winner 1997, 14). From a
second perspective, technology is imbedded in every aspect of educator preparation (CAEP
2013, 3), whereby technology lies at the core of pedagogic practice. These perspectives, as

learning (ISTE 2016, 1). The emphasis on technology integration in the twenty-first century

Definition and Foundational Ideas
In the 1998 book Technology integration: Making critical choices in a dynamic world,
author Marco Iansiti defines technology integration as a process of deciding how technologies
should be integrated and creating the building blocks of a proactive process for doing so (3).
Iansiti (1998) argues further that technology integration involves people mak[ing] choices about
rP
Fo
what should be integrated with what and for which purpose (1). Iansiti (1998) argues how the
concept of ubiquitous, sophisticated, rapidly changing technology is clich (7). He identifies
that technological environments are both novel and complex. There is need for interaction
between the novelty and complexity of technological environments. Iansiti (1998) defines
ee
rR
level of interdependence among domains (12). Iansitis text provides foundational ideas
concerning technology integration for university arts education in general and pre-service music
teacher education in particular.

is perceived as a tool that advances the ease with which teachers and students can do their

automatisms, or actions performed unconsciously (Trouche 2003). The line between constraint
(or obliging the user in a particular way) and affordance (which is the favoring of gestures by the
user) can become blurred. The ubiquity of technology may engender reliance upon it and the
perception that technology is value-neutral. These perceptions can serve to initiate discourse as

standards are implemented.
Pre-service music teachers and faculty live in complex, ubiquitous relationship with
technology. As musicians and educators, they live in a culture that models close relationship
with music machines (Turkle & Papert 1992, 16). Music machines include voices and

instruments played in a variety of teaching and learning contexts. This is coupled with twentyfirst century technologies both within and outside of the classroom, as well as connected spaces
in-between. Complexity can inspire critical thinking regarding the who, what, where, why, when,

Assumption One: No Technological Stratum
The CAEP Standards stipulate the use of Digital Age technologies in teacher preparation.
Indeed, Digital Age technologies are the major medium for technology integration for educator
preparation (CAEP 2013). CAEP views Digital Age technologies as connected technologies.
Wise (1997) asks What is being encultured in new technologies? and What do new
rP
Fo
technologies enculture? In response to this line of questioning, Greenfield (2015) observes that
Digital Age connected technologies blur linear thought sequence, focusing on present and
anticipated gratification. Time is short and there is little emphasis to turn to the past to
remember, plan, and imagine mindful decision-making for the future. This phenomenon reflects
ee
reactive participant experience shaped by technology, rather than humans proactively deciding
rR
This conception of connected technologies conflicts with definition that accounts for
ev
technologies that combine and build upon existing technology (Arthur 2009, 28). The CAEP
standards do not account for technologies developed prior to the Digital Age. This presents
ie
conflict in music education contexts, because acoustic musical instruments are a major
technological medium for music teacher education and they are not Digital Age technology.

opportunity to combine with and build upon existing technologies, essentially developing layers
of technological strata. Music education contexts have potential to combine with and build upon
existing technologies.
Core to music teacher education is corporeal interaction. Technology sociologist
Shanyang Zhao (2003) identifies this kind of interaction as the most primitive mode of human
6
togetherness (447). Acoustic instruments are a primitive mode of technology because their
sounding and vibration results from physical interaction with humans. Acoustic instruments,
including voice, are core to music teacher education. Eisner (2001) argues that somatic
knowledge, a form of body-situated knowing is required for developing relationships in music
(20). Digital Age technologies can combine with and build upon existing technologies. CAEPs

The second assumption addresses thinking that the process of learning to integrate
technology for K-12 school contexts leads to increasingly sophisticated levels of technology
ev
integration. CAEP standard 1.5 states candidates apply technology standards as they design,
implement, and assess learning experiences to engage students and improve learning (CAEP
ie
2013, 11). CAEP is referring to the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE)
standards. ISTE standards specify digital technologies. The Level of Technology Implementation
On
(LoTi) framework is used to analyze technology integration in learning environments. Each level
of the LoTi framework represents increasingly sophisticated practice of technology integration
(William & Redish 2009).

The LoTi framework and CAEP standard 1.5 is echoed in music educator Jay Dorfmans
conception of technology integration. Dorfman (2013) presents a theoretical order of technology
integration in music education. He describes how each level is increasingly sophisticated,
Page 7 of 16
7
culminating with the technological pedagogic content summit whereby technology is the major
medium by which music concepts and skills are introduced, reinforced, and assessed (7).
The CAEP standards, the LoTi Framework, and Dorfmans thinking articulate increasing
sophistication of technology integration when technology is integrated in additional aspects of
teaching and learning, leading towards technological saturation. The LoTi framework identifies a
rP
Fo
by-product of this hierarchical process occurs when digital technology becomes the medium to
explore and express higher order thinking skills and authentic real-world problems.
The problem with this viewpoint of sophistication of technology integration is it begins
with and is dependent upon technology use. Referring back to Iansiti (1998) people, not
ee
technology, are the driving force for making choices and decisions regarding technology
rR
integration contexts. That technology is ubiquitous and there are multiple technologies to
consider within music teaching and learning contexts is more reason for human discourse to be at

frameworks. The CAEP standards utilize Shulmans (1987) content and pedagogical knowledge
framework for teacher preparation. Terminology within this framework includes content
knowledge, pedagogic knowledge, and pedagogic content knowledge. Citing Shulman (1987),
the CAEP standards describe content knowledge as the depth of understanding of critical
concepts, theories, skills, processes, principles, and structures that connect and organize ideas
8
within a field (CAEP 2013, 4). Pedagogic knowledge is the broad principles and strategies of
classroom management and organization that appear to transcend subject matter (Shulman
1987, 8). Pedagogic content knowledge is the special amalgam of content and pedagogy
(Schulman 1987, 8) for the purpose of advancing students learning through presentation of
subject matter in a variety of ways that are appropriate to different situations (CAEP 2013, 5).
rP
Fo
The CAEP standards incorporate technology within the content and pedagogical
knowledge framework. To review, CAEP Standard 1.5 under Content and Pedagogical
Knowledge states: Providers ensure that completers model and apply technology standards as
they design, implement and assess learning experiences to engage students and improve learning;
ee
and enrich professional practice (CAEP 2013, 11). Technology standards refers to the ISTE
rR
standards. CAEP standard 1.5 is closely aligned with ISTE Standard 2, which states: Teachers
design, develop, and evaluate authentic learning experiences and assessments incorporating
ev
contemporary tools and resources to maximize content learning in context and to develop the
knowledge, skills, and attitudes identified in the [ISTE] Standards.

2006), and includes the following terminology: technology knowledge, technological content

technologies. Technological content knowledge is the knowledge about the manner in which
technology and content are reciprocally related (1028). Technological pedagogic knowledge is
the awareness of technologies as they are used in teaching and their potential effect on teaching.
Technological pedagogic content knowledge represents a class of knowledge that is central to
teachers work with technology (1029).
Page 9 of 16

The underlying assumption when considering knowledge frameworks is technological
pedagogic content knowledge is the central class of knowledge pre-service teachers need to
acquire as they engage in technology integration. Class of knowledge denotes hierarchy. This
echoes Dorfmans idea (2013) of reaching the technological pedagogic content summit.
Alternatively, the elements resulting from the work of Shulman (1987) as well as Koehler
rP
Fo
and Mishra (2006) present what can be conceptualized as a series of lenses. Regarding preservice music education students, these lenses represent the knowledge they are developing and
specific application as they design, implement, and assess learning experiences. Students might
begin with a singular lens, such as content or pedagogical knowledge in music. Indeed, CAEP
ee
standard 1.3 requires music completers to apply content and pedagogical knowledge that reflects
rR
standards and guidelines set by the National Association of Schools of Music (NASM). As preservice music students experience with complexity develops, they will realize interdependence
ev
ie
knowledge and technology content knowledge. Indeed, lenses can overlap to design for and
respond to complex learning environments. The concept of lenses is a means for pre-service

music teachers to become classroom ready (CAEP 2015, 12) by learning to adapt knowledge
frameworks to complex teaching and learning environments, whereby technology changes in

A Culture of Evidence
The CAEP accreditation manual (2015) states the accreditation process is designed to
support a culture of evidence (6). It requires the Education Preparation Provider to interpret all
10
of the available evidence about its quality (6). A culture of evidence supports data collection
and monitoring (6). Collecting and interpreting data are opportunity for universities to initiate
Iansitis concept (1998) of a proactive process regarding what should be integrated with what
and for which purpose.
Discourse is critical to developing understanding for technology integration in pre-service
rP
Fo
music teacher programs. It will inform the thinking and rationale underpinning data collection
and interpretation. Discourse among faculty within music education focuses ideas for later
interaction with other arts education and general education faculty. A starting place is finding
connections and alignment between CAEP, NASM, and EdTPA1 technology requirements, as
ee
applicable to the university music teacher preparation program. Discourse can serve to map out
rR
ev
Approaches to interweaving and imbedding technology for the music teacher education
program then can be developed. This process maps out a technology integration terrain that
ie
sets the groundwork for developing assessment tools for data collection and monitoring.

The CAEP accreditation process also supports a culture of innovation (CAEP 2015).

Within the CAEP accreditation manual, innovation most often is cited with continuous
improvement. Innovation is defined by the CAEP glossary (2016) as implementation of
something new or different in the preparation of educators that leads to the improvement of
teaching and support of student learning (11). Technology integration falls within the scope of
innovation, because new and different technologies or technological use can be implemented
Page 11 of 16
11
within the preparation of educators. Emphasis on innovation within the CAEP accreditation
process stems from the Framework for Twenty-First Century Learning presented by the
Partnership for Twenty-First Century Skills (2009). The core of the P21 framework presents
Learning and Innovation Skills. Innovation results from acting upon ideas that have resulted
from thinking creatively and working collaboratively with others.

Inclusion of technology is one of the innovations in the 2014 National Core Music

music is woven through each content area standards document. In addition, Music Technology is

designing, implementing, and assessing student learning, additional knowledge frameworks can
be applied.
Discourse between music education faculty, pre-service music students, and K-12 music
teachers from clinical experiences is critical to develop inquiry and understanding of current
innovations in practice. It is a way to examine how past and present technologies are used and to
rP
Fo
imagine possibilities for innovative practice within pre-service music teacher partnerships. As a
culture of innovation is implemented within the CAEP accreditation process, discourse regarding
diversity within innovation and in what ways can innovative practice support music teaching and
learning is critical.

Implications and Recommendations
This article has argued that pre-service music teacher education brings unique voice to
ev
discourse concerning technology integration within the context of implementing the CAEP
standards and accreditation process. Moreover, it is common that a pre-service music teacher

program is a concentration within a general education teacher preparation department. There are
implications across university departments: Pre-service music teacher education may experience

set aside by the primary university education stakeholder in the CAEP accreditation process. Preservice music teacher education brings a distinct viewpoint to the process and deserves
recognition. Comprehensive development of technology integration that develops in the
discipline of music potentially is at risk of exclusion from wider CAEP discourse.
Page 13 of 16
13
There also are implications for music departments with pre-service music teacher
education programs. Faculty may choose to address technology integration in the CAEP
standards by setting aside a section of the academic year to teach explicitly to the standards. It is
unlikely pre-service music teacher education will eliminate older technologies. A digital
technology module could be developed that involves exclusive work with digital technology
rP
Fo
utilizing the technological pedagogic content knowledge framework. While this is one option for
technology integration, it should not be the only approach. A diversified approach to technology
integration offers potential for the internalization of foundational technology integration
concepts, versatile movement between content and pedagogic knowledge frameworks, and the
ee
rR
ev
process offers national peer expertise. While discourse within and across university departments
is critical, extending the discourse to include CAEP would provide national perspective to help
ie
inform decision-making processes. It is recommended that CAEP utilize the Every Student
Succeeds Act (ESSA) as a structure for building its cadre of peer reviewers. This federal law
