Abstract
To support the integration of technology in the K-12 special education classroom, teacher preparation programs must infuse technology across existing special education curricula. The purpose of this article is to provide a discussion and illustration of the possibilities for using microcomputer technologies and Internet access to enhance teacher education in transition-related issues. The article discusses the development of microcomputer applications for teacher preparation and proceeds with a description how transition-related curricula can be enhanced through multimedia web-based technologies. An online module using case-method instruction will be described, which is designed to help current and future teachers and school-to-work transition specialists confront issues and problems related to the transition of students with special needs to the postsecondary environment. The transferability of instructional programming to other teacher preparation situations and other cases studies is also discussed.
